    Active Topics - a new "What's New"

    "I now use the What's New section" That's the way the vast majority of regular members use the forum. In fact, that's how it's designed to be used, so much so that there wasn't even an "active topics" on the home page. However, one of my garden forums members complained about not being able to...

    Gear that changed my (photographic) life: the Canon PowerShot G3

    I had the G6, loved that little guy, and even had some of my photos from it published. It was only 6 MP, but for the time was a pretty good camera!

    Active Topics - a new "What's New"

    Bill, I added the "What's New" to the front page a couple weeks ago, after a visitor to my Gardening Website said she had no idea how to find current discussions. What's new now is that in this forum I've fine tuned which topics it displays, removing any topics that are news and blog related...

    Birds of Nebraska

    When you upload files, it gives you the option to insert either thumbnails or full size images. I simply went back and changed your thumbnails to full size. It shows off the details much better. To be honest, I suspect most folks don't bother clicking on the thumbnails unless a photo really...

    Welcome back Osprey (Upload Error - Solved)

    So, Ricky, try it again, should work now.

    Welcome back Osprey (Upload Error - Solved)

    Image test. Size is now increased to 50 mp. Ok, this image really needs cropped, but that's not the point. I just happened to have it handy. It's from a D850, and its a whopping 8256 x 5504 before it was shrunk by Xenforo. So that means the forum should handle most images without needing to...

    Welcome back Osprey (Upload Error - Solved)

    Well, he was asking about file size and hadn't hit the problem. A bit of research indicates the limit is currently 20 mp. Since most folks do at least some file re-sizing on export, we hadn't bumped into this before. I'm working on getting it adjusted.

    Birds of Nebraska

    Tom, welcome back and great photos! Especially impressed with the eagle shots, you got some nice closeups. As for the vultures... They regulars around your parts? You haven't developed a fever and cough, have you?

    Active Topics - a new "What's New"

    I post a lot of blogs, the information is useful and helps the search ranking for the website. However, I realize that the regulars are often just looking for new posts from other members. So to help you find that, I've modified the "What's New" on the home page. It's now select categories...

    Bald Eagle Closeup - NW Trek

    Yes, I'm not affiliated with them, just a tourist. It was taken a week or two after the new exhibit opened. I have a season pass, so I stopped by on the way to someplace else, shot for an hour or so and then headed on my way. That's the nice thing about a season's pass, you don't feel bad if you...

    Bald Eagle Closeup - NW Trek

    Taken deep in the forest in the foothills of Mount Rainier. I was able to sneak up on this bald eagle who was.... ... resting comfortably in the new Bald Eagle exhibit at Northwest Trek Wildlife Park. The exhibit is a bit of a challenge to photograph (even when it's not closed due to Covid) as...

    LensCoat diverts its US production facilities to make masks for local hospital

    Those are cool, I want one!

    This Is One of the Best (& Most Overlooked) Tools in Lightroom for Editing Your Landscape Photos

    So the secret is "Split Toning" and I'll be honest. I hear about it from time to time, and I've played with it once or twice, but I never use it, or even really know what it does. Anyone using Split Toning? If so, what do you like about it?

    COVID-19 And The National Parks: Should The Parks Be Closed?

    I love the National Parks and visit often. I’m sad they’re closed, but I understand. Nobody needs to visit a National Park. Even if you can do social distancing most of the time, you need restrooms and often a place to eat and possibly lodging. You also need people to support those facilities...

    Rainbow Owl

    Loof Lirpa, the photographer, stated: "I was out shooting when this little guy flew out of a Creative Cloud. He landed on Adobe Photoshop Rocks and posed for this photo."

    Rainbow Owl

    Many photographers in the Pacific Northwest have become interested in owls this year due to numerous Short Eared Owl sightings. If you're one of them, here's a new one for you. I've never even heard of this elusive creature, let alone photographed him! Anyone ever seen one in the wild? An...

    Enhanced Site Security - Now Upgraded to SSL

    Glad it’s working. We never ask for any “sensitive” info, so there was no risk before. But this will reassure everyone that the connection is secure. It also helps with Google rankings. They now penalize sites that don’t hand them.

    Enhanced Site Security - Now Upgraded to SSL

    The site has now been upgraded to SSL. That means it is more secure. Even though we really don't collect any personal info, so there's not much of anything for anyone to hack, we felt it was time to make the change anyway. You should now see a padlock next to the URL in your browser. If you...

    Edmonds Backyard Critters

    Nice! I have neither Douglas Squirrels or Pileated Woodpeckers. I just have the "generic" ones, Grey Squirrels and Northern Flickers. I still enjoy them though, and I also have a "squirrel freeway". It runs from a neighbor's tree to my bird feeder. The neighbor has an area of grass he...
