Tomorrow we are supposed to have about 8" of snow in some areas, is that headed towards you guys too?
Yep, we're expected to get at least 8" by tomorrow, they said some areas should see more.

Any better?

well when its 30-40 deg every day my feelings are I need something to do so freeze up some ice for me to skate on/play hockey and some snow for me to snowboard on.

neither as of yet so I'm bored out of my mind.

Thanks weather wasn't too cold but traffic getting there was terrible. The staties kept closing streets causing more traffic. I just double parked by the side of the road when the fireworks started and ran out to setup my tripod.

Well done Chewy.

That strong back light and water sparkle made for a tough exposure.

Cleanest, great eyelight with both kittens. Too many people forget to go for that, particularly with animals.

Abbey looks underexposed to me, but you seem to have added a lot of vignetting that makes it seem dark.

If your not shooting RAW, then consider trying it. If you'll Expose To The Right (right of the histogram) and then pull the level down in RAW conversion, you'll get less noise, higher dynamic range and better colors. In-camera jpeg limit your camera's capacity.

The in-camera jpeg of this coyote hunting looks washed out an flat, but this RAW conversion, with Contrast raise, S-curve applied to RGB curve and a little added Vibrance really pops:

I do shoot in RAW I turned up the exposure a bit and re uploaded the photo. Would you say it looks better now?

Nice shot, Chewy. Looks like some pretty sizable rollers out past the boat.

Cleanest, the new shot is better. Cute cats. Shame they don't stay that small and cute.

Probably a popular name for that type of boat. Clever, though.
