I'm always amazed at how many Cardinals hang out here. Had to change the score, though. There are four Blue Jays in the pics. The Jay still are top of the order. They get what they want. Until the cats climb the tree.

^ whoa! Very cool... how does the ground feel? Looks smooth, but is it rough?

The1 · 01-20-2011, 12:17 PM

that's actually the walls of the canyon looking upwards towards sky, which you can't see soemtimes.

it's sandstone, so it basically feels like sandpaper.

very cool experience being down there, was really upset with myself for leaving my tripod behind, it got a bit dark to shoot sometimes.

The1 · 01-20-2011, 01:33 PM

from my old SX10IS way back in the day.

can definitely tell the clarity difference between the 2 cameras, and the other picture above is from a T1i that i wasn't happy with.

lol....

most of the cameras people are using for these shots (and other equipment) cost more then the average yearly income in some 3rd world countries....

Below poverty in Barbados is considered less then 2000$ per year.

does that make anyone here feel a bit guilty?

M_Six · 01-21-2011, 08:35 PM

Nasty house fire near us this evening. Temps are around 0F, so fighting this must have really sucked. I know the neighborhood where this was. All very nice homes. I haven't read or heard any news about it, but I wouldn't be surprised if this was the result of a chimney fire.

LATE EDIT: It was not a house. It was a pole barn. Just an RV, a Mustang, and some equipment lost. No injuries.

Chewy734 · 01-21-2011, 09:46 PM

What do you guys think? I shot him tonight at 1600 ISO, 1 sec, f/4.

Thanks. I was kinda surprised how well it turned out, since it's a ~7 year old camera body at 1600 ISO.

So weird, I can't seem to see it on the Bimmer app for my iphone

M_Six · 01-22-2011, 10:54 PM

My cat's Venus Fly Trap look. So cute, but so lethal. Put your hand near her, and she'll grab on and sink her teeth in.
