Nice house. Costs more than everyone in my family tree has ever made. LOL

Cool shot, Denn.

Is this your 400/5.6 in action? Very sharp!

Yeah it's a great lens considering it is relatively lo tech.

I dumped an old HDD and found some old vacation pictures with my first DSLR - A Rebel T1i.

Actually, this was quite a lot of work. This photo is a pano of 13 shots (portrait orientation). The exposure was difficult as I wanted to protect the sky detail and not loose the color in the foreground and mountains. Straight out of the camera, the RAW files were quite bland, lots of cloud detail, but bland!

As I explained to my wife, once in a while I have a plan for a shot before I take it, and even more infrequently, the plan works!

Those little hornworm bastages ate all my tomatoes the last time I attempted to grow some

Great pic, though. Love the way Zeiss lenses render.

Yep, they ruined our tomatoes, and all I got was a photo!

I was hanging out by the bay this afternoon and got to watch a bunch of ducks flying down the creek toward open water. It's about that time of year to get back into practice of tracking very fast birds, and ducks really do fly incredibly fast.

Fantastic end result. This is a situation where the contrast and saturation sliders become very positive.

I replaced my Sigma 15mm f/2.8 fisheye with a used Canon 15mm f/2.8 fisheye. I think that the Canon is a little sharper out in the corners, particularly when I de-fish the image, as below:
