Beauty, Ed. The 24-105 does panos pretty well.

Thanks guys. It has been a lot of fun the last couple of weeks going out to Point Reyes. I must admit I do it to beat the heat here as much as anything, as it can be over 20 degrees cooler there, but there has been plenty to shoot there too. I have a four day weekend coming up and one of those days I will probably find myself out there again.

More Vail (better than more cowbell)

Itsed65 · 10-09-2014, 02:24 PM

^^^Purty. I'm trying to get over to the eastern Sierra to get the aspens changing in the next few weeks.

Itsed65 · 10-09-2014, 08:22 PM

I got an email this morning that another wine club shipment is in. Time to head north again this weekend.

(I know, but there is no emoticon for wine!)

Thanks, go quick, the higher elevations are done, at least here in Colorado.

Thanks Mark. It was pretty close to sunset, so the only worry was deep shadows; otherwise, any subject in that light was going to make me look good.

Itsed65 · 10-10-2014, 08:19 PM

Great shot Dave. I'm continually amazed how graceful they look in flight as they look so ungainly on the ground.

I'm way behind, but I took the same shot on the same night, but before the sun was down. Mine was taken with the 5D MkIII, EF 500mm f/4L IS and the EF 2.0x TC-III, hand held. It's interesting to compare crop vs. full-frame and see that properly processed, there's NO DIFFERENCE. (We processed almost the same with some slightly different choices):

Thanks, and agreed, but they're deadly accurate when fishing for small fish.

Yeah, I'm amazed how quickly they nail fish and then maneuver the fish into their gullets.

I saw my first bald eagle of this season, a few weeks earlier than usual. I hope bodes well for many, many eagles.

Nice catch, DC. I saw two last weekend, but as usual they were camera shy and kept their distance. Nice to know they're back at the local lake, though.

IRide · 10-11-2014, 06:37 AM

Another pano from the Badlands, SD.

dcstep · 10-11-2014, 12:00 PM

Superb Badlands pano.
