Back then, I still had a lot of trees right next to the house, and one partially blocked Polaris, the North Star. Most of the trees are gone either to disease or the “mile a minute” invasive vine. I am now looking into putting some solar panels on the roof.
Pair of Fawns Resting in the Shade to Escape the Heat. Backyard summer nature in New Jersey. Image taken with a Nikon D700 camera and 28-300 mm VR lens (ISO 800, 300 mm, f/5.6. 1/40 sec).
Painted Canyon Panorama. Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Image taken with a Nikon D3 and 85 mm f/2.8 PC-E lens. Composite of 9 images using AutoPano Giga. With and without using the Kolor neutralhazer filter. I know that there are several dehaze filters now available (DxO, Photoshop, Lightroom). This was one of the first going back at least four years. The individual images going into the panorama are included below.
