Great portrait, Joshua (as always, I might add).
Nice atmospheric series, Helena. I miss the snow.
Beautiful reflections, Rich.
That's an amazing close-up study of the kingfisher, Ronny.
Douglas, really nice waterfall and foilage shots.
Chuck: Amazing lighting on that night shot.
Sigma 14-24mm at 15mm, f2.8 and ISO 8000. Stack of black and white frames (about a dozen each). It was a cloud free night, but the milky way wasn't visible at all, hence the milky way doesn't look all that nice, despite quite a bit of PP. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50519108388_2f4db26beb_o.jpg
Thank you, Chris. That's a lot of efforts going into this milky way shot! I need to learn astrography one of these days.
Some shots from yesterday morning, A7RIV+Sigma 24-70 and Sony 100-400. After the storm on Thursday, the leave peeking season here is pretty much over.
Looking at an Immature Tricolored Heron.
Cropped, supported hand held out car window 200-600mm G set to 541mm and A7rIII; silent shutter.
ISO 200, f8.0, 1/800 second.

Many thanks John!
It was very well worth the effort, photographically speaking. It got soon pretty cloudy, but that led to interesting lighting conditions. I will post some more in the next days...
