Taken on October 8, 2019 at 6:52 PM with a Nikon D850 and Nikon 20mm f/1.8 lens. This image consists of two images blended together, one was exposed for the sky and the other for the foreground. Both images were shot in TIF, I set the Picture Control to Standard then adjusted the settings to +1 sharpening, +1 clarity, +1 contrast, +1 brightness, and +1 saturation. This is a technique of Chris Balmer of the Yellowstone Camera Store in West Yellowstone. This works great if you don't want to post process. Just download and print. In hind sight I would not add a +1 to the brightness nor the contrast. This made recovering the highlights an issue. Shooting in TIF creates huge files, this one was 133MB and by the time I got done with it, yes I further processed it in Photoshop, it ended up being 2.97GB in size. Crazy.

I have restored this image from a blueprint, and added colour. (Track circuit colours may be inaccurate as I had no reference information)
Adding a touch of sparkle to the 50 alongside the Volvo B9TL Olympus and normal E400MMCs, one of the Sapphire spec examples helped out.

More than a touch of filter was added in post-processing.
Yesterday, 6 January 2025, I went for a drive SE of Calgary, hoping that I might just be lucky in finding a Snowy Owl. My daughter has a free day coming up and we will be going to the same areas. With a bit of luck, she will be able to find her first Snowy of the year.
Luck was on my side yesterday, as I found a beautiful female Snowy Owl. Along one back road, I had pulled over to photograph the clouds, when suddenly, a large bird of prey flew from a fence post and across the road, disappearing over the fields. A Snowy that I hadn't seen when perched, as it was very distant. Once I was home, I was able to zoom in with my photos and, sure enough, there was the owl. A short while later, I spotted the same owl perched on a tall power pole. Took a few shots through the windscreen. I did wonder about standing outside my car to get a couple of not-blurry captures. However, as almost always happens, the only vehicle (pickup truck) I had seen along the back roads came rushing from behind my car and off flew the owl. So, I was left with awful, very blurry images, but did edit and edit and edit the above image, to post just for the record, of my first Snowy Owl sighting of the year.
Other birds seen yesterday were hundreds of Snow Buntings in a huge flock along a highway. They didn't stay still, constantly on the move while quickly feeding in the snowy field and then all flying together this way and that. They are such beautiful birds, especially when seen in flight. Also saw a small group of Gray Partridge which were running down the road, way ahead of me.
This week, our weather is beautiful, milder and no fresh snow for a few days. The worry is that, with so little snow so far this winter, will the crops have enough water in a few months' time?
