Photography- one photo a day

[colonel00]

Great pics Brad! I can't wait for the birds to return this spring...I have a new camera and lens to test out!!

What did you get? I've been itching to buy something new but can't pull the trigger. Not really a new body available for me yet. I've been on the fence on a new lens though. Just can't seem to justify a large lump of money for something that may only get me moderate improvements.

Somehow I justified the expense (I can be slightly irrational!) and really went down the rabbit hole... I updated from a Canon Rebel T3I to a 5DMIV and found a great deal on a used canon prime and went all in on a telescope of a lens (EF 800). Both are recent additions and I haven't gotten much use out of either yet. I am slightly stupid but really looking forward to seeing what I can get from both. Now, I need to get a decent landscape / astro lens and I should be set for awhile....well and a 7DMII is on the wish list. I thought hunting was an expensive hobby....the world of photos is dumb if you can't tell yourself no!!! Good-luck on chasing the next best piece of gear problem...I thoroughly failed that test.

Yeah, since I am, at this point, committed to Pentax, my options are somewhat limited which can actually be a blessing (to my wallet) at times.

For a landscape/astro lens, keep an eye out for a Rokinon/Samyang/Bower/whatever 14mm f2.8. They are a steal of a lens and perform fantastic for astro stuff. Granted, they are manual focus but I pretty much have mine taped off at infinity all the time. If you get one, make sure to test it for decentering.

If you ever make it down south, give me a shout. Birds are just now arriving here.

I’m looking at this on my phone and it looks unreal! Super cool pic! Way different from what I’m used to looking at. When was that taken?

I think 2014, we were on a road trip vacation. I snuck out through the grass and got close when this one busted me.

Nice Badlands ram coop. Here is one I shot there last December. Looking forward to trying again in a couple weeks.

This was my first year setting trail cameras. I didn't get any spectacular images but did find some fun activity. I thought these two needed to be posted together. https://flic.kr/p/Z277TL

Thanks, Travis. I think I may blow it up and see how it looks on wall. I wish I could tell you what beach we were at. I know it was around the North Eastern side.
