          Nice shots @Jett129 judging by the framing you’ve either a boat or some monster zoom lens in your arsenal of camera equipment.

            I was on the shore shooting with a 100-400 at 400,and they’re heavily cropped. I shoot in Raw,and the files come in at about 38mb,so I have some wiggle room. Shot at ISO-2000,f14 and about 1000/second.

              Thanks for sharing @Jett129 the shoot settings, it’s the layer of detail I love about photography. This canon ad I saw years back resonates.

                Thanks for the settings info @Jett129 . I’ve never done well at oceanside shots and your data encourages me to try it again at the next opportunity. Never shot RAW either. When you shoot RAW, do you necessarily have todo do color postprocessing? I’m hopeless at that bit.

                The journey is the objective.

                  When you shoot RAW,it's sort of presumed that you will be doing some level of post processing,if nothing else,just to convert the file into a usable jpeg. I use a photo editing software by a company called DXO. I find that it makes it really easy to do color corrections/modifications,and cropping. They offer a free 30 day trial,which I would recommend.

                        Thank you. I use that pier to anchor a lot of my sunrise/sunset pictures and had been getting bored as of late,so I decided to experiment and use a lens that you would normally use for doing extreme close-up photography. Had no idea the storm was on the way when I set out to take the pictures. Took about 100 shots before I had to get out of there. This was probably the best one.

                          Looks nice the way that macro compresses things – nice capture

                            Thanks. It’s a really sharp lens that I had gotten for my son when he was getting into photography. I don’t use it, so I thought let’s see what happens.

                                  Today was a holiday here and the weather was promising for photos: little wind, good light. So I sat waiting for some birds to come for water and food. Not artistic, mostly just descriptive type bird pics…

                                  Common thrush around here. Local name “jichi taruma”

                                  Two tanagers; the green/bluish one is far more common and called ‘sayubu”.

                                  This small guy, a parula, is an insectivore and moves in lightning fast bursts.

                                  I was sitting in my kitchen having beers with a heavy lens on a tripod…lazy afternoon. Good relaxation.

                                  (Nikon D500 and a 600 mm lens)

                                  The journey is the objective.
