    Couple more from Malheur

    Harriers can be tough, Bill, let alone getting a nice shot of an elusive male. FWIW, you're not the only one that has a hard time getting something decent of a pheasant, either ;) Still trying to figure out where to go tomorrow.....will shoot you an email or text before the end of the day...

    Bosque del Apache

    I took some head shots while there and thought about adding one or two, but I was leaning more towards showing the cranes in Bosque. I really like trying to give a sense of "place" in photos and that can be difficult to do with close-ups, though in the context of a video I can see how it would...

    Bosque del Apache

    I didn't really know where to put this, but I figured it had stills in it and was of wildlife, so I'd tossed it here. If it needs to be moved, just let me know and I can put it in the Videography section. That being said, I finally completed a Bosque del Apache video, focusing (haha) on the...

    captured a funny whippet moment yesterday

    I can't help but think the dog on the right is a boy that did something to upset "her" on the left......LOL dave

    Odd man out

    A couple from Malheur NWR

    Nice stuff, these and the heron/snake from Ridgefield, Bill! Count me as jealous of the yellow-headed blackbirds, one of my nemesis birds! Dave

    Nisqually NWR

    The sheer size and relatively limited accessibility of Nisqually doesn’t help much. One definitely needs to put some miles under their feet there to get to know the place well, but that can be half the fun of it. I was pretty sad to see the portion of the old trail that led out to McAllister...

    Film & DSLR video shootout

    This is quite lengthy (each of the three episodes are about 30 mins long), but it's a great shootout that speaks quite extensively to DSLRs video and the movie industry professionals take on it. Sounds like we might be seeing more and more video being shot from our cameras on the big screen...

    Do you shoot video with your DSLR?

    Oh I see problems with it as well and totally agree that it has some serious limitations, Bob. The little video I have shot with an SLR has felt awkward and clumsy. It’s not very intuitive or easy to use, but honestly neither is my little Handycam. Getting the best out of a video specific camera...

    Do you shoot video with your DSLR?

    It's pretty basic in its application, but that's not necessarily a bad thing ;) Not knowing how the situation in Japan is going to affect the release of a D400, I decided to finally just get a D300s. I shot some video with it down at Nisqually Yesterday and put this video together with Movie...

    Humpback Whale

    So does my wife! Good thing she doesn't read this board.......:)

    Humpback Whale

    Pretty cool stuff! The one and only opportunity I've had to shoot wales was out at Westport, Wa. The seas were really rough which made it tough....that and having to shoot over all the people leaning on the rail barfing :eek: Dave

    A Number of Familiar Faces

    Nice to see you back, Mike! Dave

    fox sparrow

    Lovely photos of a bird I still have yet to see. I especially like the second shot. One of these days I'll make it up to Juanita..... Dave

    Do you shoot video with your DSLR?

    I don't know what platform you are running off of, but I think Windows live Movie Maker will edit quite a few types of video. My copy came with the Windows 7 laptop that I bought last year. I rented a D300s for a trip I took down to New Mexico and it has 2 card slots. You can configure it to...

    Nisqually NWR - Deb's Shots

    Nice stuff! I'm amazed at how active the beaver has been out there this past year. There are signs of it all over the place, especially on the the west side boardwalk. I actually got some photos of it back in December(?). This has been a really good year for bittern there as well, as your...

    Nisqually NWR's Boardwalk

    Hi all, I go out to Nisqually quite often and Bob is right, it's big glass country. More often than not I'm shooting my 500 + 1.4. Though there are quite a few blue heron that will frequently be close enough where a 300mm would suffice. Personally, I thing winter is the best season out...
