DrRoy, Beautiful photos.
kcowan, Love that Indian sculpture.
Frayne, That's a beautiful moon shot.
Ronstar, The tower of London looks like an illustration. Love the time exposure on Big Ben.
Khan, WHERE have you been? Been thinking of you since the hurricane hit Florida. Hope all is well.

That is impressive. What lens did you use?

Used my DSLR Canon 70D, Lens-Canon 100-400L mm with a 2x converter giving an approx 1280 mm vocal length. Shot at ISO 200, F-20, SS 1/50. One of twenty shots last night.

And a tripod and remote switch/timer, I assume. In any event, kudus for a great shot.

Thanks for the info & great shot!

Thanks, splitwdw.

I have been finding that the photos from my wife's Canon T5i are more grainy than I like, so we are replacing it with a Nikon D5300.

Another shot from Norway.

Yes, tripod and cable shutter release, also locked up the mirror to reduce vibration. Sorry if I left that out.

Thanks

I'm on west coast of Florida, just some breezy weather and rainy days from Mathew.

So I have been home from Norway a couple weeks and have been able to do some Photoshopping. This is one of my favorite views from a hike up Offersoykammen in the Lofoten islands.

Nice shot, Dr. Roy. Before reading your post, I thought the photo was from a plane. That must have been an awesome hike!

Kewl! Have taken lots of optical and electron microscope pics over the years, mostly of semiconductor pieces-parts. Left them all at w*rk, where they belong...

Atlanta Marriott Marquis. Shooting there took a toll on my neck. It was worth it.

Monarch on its way south stopping by a tithonia for a drink.

We spent a week at a beautiful beach house in Gulf Shores, Alabama in mid-October. We were treated to a near-constant stream of migrating Monarchs slowly making their way south along the beach. Very interesting! Those critters had a long trip in front of them.
