David's Images of the Day Photoblog
Dark-eyed “Slate-colored” Junco hiding in the bushes. Image taken with a Nikon 1 V2 camera, FT1 adapter,and 28-300 mm VR lens (ISO 160, 300 mm, f/5.6, 1/200 sec). The camera did a great job focusing on the birds eye in a dense field of distractions!
First day of spring and it snowed. Composite of 6 images taken with a Fuji X-T1 camera and Zeiss 32 mm lens (ISO 400, 32 mm, f/5.6, 1/125 sec). Raw image processed with Autopano Giga, Capture One Pro, Focus Magic, and Photoshop CC.
Squirrel Eating an Acorn in a Tree in My Front Yard. Image taken with a Nikon 1 V1 camera and 200 mm f/2 VR lens connected with a FT1 adapter (ISO 100, 200 mm, f/2.5, 1/800 sec). With the Nikon 1 sensor size, the field of view is equivalent to 540 mm on a 35 mm sensor.
Black-capped Chickadee trying to keep warm above my doorway on a cold winter night. Image taken with a Nikon D300 and 18-200 mm VR lens (ISO 800, 200 mm, f/7, 1/60 sec, flash).
One of the Many Squirrels Free Loading in My Attic. There were five nests and I had to replace all of the insulation in the attic and the wiring that they chewed through. Don’t know why they didn’t get electrocuted, and glad they didn’t start a fire. I wasn’t allowed to drop him/her off at the local nature preserve, but somewhere 5 miles away from the house. Image taken with a Leica T camera and 18-56 mm lens (ISO 100, 20 mm, f/4.2, 1/80 sec).
