David's Images of the Day Photoblog
Views of nature and the natural world. Plants, animals, and wildlife from around the world.
Male Peacock Posing for the Camera. Ardastra Gardens, Zoo and Conservation Centre, Nassau, Bahamas. Image taken with a Nikon D3x camera and 70-300 mm VR lens (ISO 200, 145 mm, f/5.6, 1/100 sec).
Startrails Looking North From My Backyard in New Jersey. Composite of 400 images taken with a Fuji X-T1 camera and 14 mm f/2.8 lens (ISO 200, 14 mm, f/2.8, 30 sec). Raw images processed with Capture One Pro and Photoshop CC. In the past I used the startrails.exe program to create the composite image. This time I made the composite using Scripts/Statistics Stack Mode = Maximum within Photoshop CC 2015.
Morning View of the North Bull Lighthouse at the Entrance to Dublin Harbor With the Bailey Lighthouse at Howth in the Distance. Image taken with a Leica V-Lux 6 camera (ISO 100, 17.7 mm, f/2.8, 1/1600 sec).
American Sycamore Tree in the Fog. Image taken with a Leica T camera and 11-23 mm lens (ISO 200, 16 mm, f/11, 0.5 sec). Raw image processed with Capture One Pro 8 and Photoshop CC.
I had gone for a walkabout at the Sourland Mountain Preserve. There was a family of Canada Geese swimming in the pond near the parking lot. After trying a number of different angles, I finally managed to catch them in formation. Image taken with a Nikon 1 V1 + FT1 adapter + 70-200 mm f/2.8 VRII lens (ISO 400, 200 mm, f/5.6, 1/320 sec). FOV = 540 mm with a 35 mm sensor.
