    Arlington Flyin - Slow shutter speed on fast moving objects.

    Trains are a great subject for it, as their path is predictable and they move at a relatively steady speed. So they're really good for trying this out.

    Arlington Flyin - Slow shutter speed on fast moving objects.

    I attended the Arlington Flyin on Saturday. It was my first time at the venue, and they put on a great show. Nice crowd but the place is big, so plenty of room right on the rope line for the big air show. Another photographer I know was there, and he encouraged me to try some slow shutter speeds...

    Also, I think I may have upgraded the imaging system after you joined. (I know I upgraded it, just can't recall exactly when...) It now accepts much larger images than it did when I first set it up, so if you haven't tried within the last couple of weeks, please try again.

    What happens when you try to post photos? Are you getting an error message? It can handle images that are quite large, what size are they?

    Pelican pix

    Ah, f11, that 'splains it. I typically have trouble getting that while keeping the shutter speed at 1/1000th.

    Pelican pix

    Impressive, and quite a nice job of getting all three in the stack in focus! What aperture were you at?

    Tufted Puffins in Washington State?

    I saw that, and so far that seems to be the only one I've managed to find. It's a shame that they're so scarce these days.

    Birds of Plain Washington, Memorial Day Weekend 2018

    Very nice, looks like you did really well over the weekend!

    Seabeck Eagle

    It's all about the fish. I knew when I got there that things weren't going to be great, as there were no herons to speak of. No herons means no fish which means no eagles. If it's a bad year for the fish run, it will be a bad year for eagles.

    Eagle Talon Lock, Seabeck, WA

    Thanks, it does take a lot of work, and a lot of luck, to get shots like this. Now my goal is to get one even closer, so it's super sharp.

    Eagle Talon Lock, Seabeck, WA

    Once you've been photographing eagles for a while, you start going after some of the more challenging photos. Typical ones include snagging a fish out of the water, mating in mid-air, and a fight with a talon lock. Usually fleeting, they're all tough to capture. Today I used my extreme skill...

    Pileated woodpecker

    Very nice, I haven't been lucky enough to find one, though admittedly I haven't tried that hard.

    Tufted Puffins in Washington State?

    Today's "featured photo" blog post showcased a tufted puffin. http://www.pnwphotos.com/forum/index.php?threads/photo-of-the-day-by-bill-boswell.18556/ That photo was taken in Iceland, but there are also tufted puffins here in Washington state. Unfortunately, the numbers have declined...

    Hello from Stanwood

    Welcome aboard Chris, glad you've signed up. Been kind of busy the last few days and missed this one.

    Seabeck Eagle

    There were maybe a dozen of them hanging around, if that. Those are iphone photos, so they make them look small.

    Seabeck Eagle

    Went to Seabeck today since it was one of the few chances Deb would have to go. Not much action. Here’s what a minus 1 tide looks like, pretty far out.

    White-rumped sandpiper

    Very cool! What are the main distinguishing factors for the white rumped vs the normal sandpipers? It is purely the white rump area? I don't think I would have ever noticed this guy in a flock of Sandpipers.

    Flicker flight

    Very nice, great view of the colorful wing feathers. I see these in my yard, but don’t often see the wings like that.

    Houston, we have a problem. I forgot the SD card....

    Ever have a problem with your GoPro? Who hasn't right? Seems like they're a rather fiddly bit of gear, always needing attention. Of course having a fresh battery and an SD card are something you can't forget. But what happens when you forget the SD card on one of the most important photo shoots...
