Hydro electricity would be a great way to go in Iceland, but then there is so much geothermal activity on the Island that I suppose it doesn't matter how you do it. Energy is abundant in this part of the world, from natural renewable sources. This is one of millions of waterfalls on this island. In fact after visiting Iceland all other waterfalls have paled in comparison. It the type of place to go if you love waterfalls as there are so many that most in the backcountry go unmarked unless they are monstrous. This is an unmarked waterfall in the backcountry. Many of the most beautiful places in Iceland require a jeep capable of being submerged around 3 feet deep in a river. Some places more. I have a new found respect for the capabilities of modern automobiles after visiting this place.
comparing mobile phone auto night shot (6 sec. long expos. ) and Dslr manual (4 sec. L. expos. ),(both hand held no tripod) problem with DSLR, things look much brighter on its compact screen till you enlarge ( deceiving)
strangely wiith the phone camera, a speed boat passed while taking the shot but still captured no movement ,
both no edit
... one needs knowledge, a set of skills, good training and a sense of responsibility when getting gas pipes into the ground and making sure that energy arrives at people's homes. This is what we would expect, of course. However, and by comparison, you don't need any of these qualities if you want to become the British Prime Minister. Actually, the moral and intellectual requirements are so refreshingly low these days that any pig having its snout firmly in the trough could apply. And they did. Fuji X-E2 plus Helios 44M-7 at F11.

The outer facades of the Taj Mahls and the tombs inside are decorated with reliefs and, above all, with multi-coloured marble inlays of the greatest fineness and with various semi-precious stones. There are colorful floral motifs, but also inscriptions with passages from the Koran in black marble on a white background

Leica M Mono, Leitz Elmar 4/135 at F8. Of course, this comparison to the previous image is not straightforward. It is not just a different and much more expensive camera, the lens has a different focal range and is really old (over 60 years). But I do not think that the previous image, done with a "budget combo", is in any way inferior to this one. In fact, when it comes to judging an image as "interesting" or "artistic" I don't think that the question of budget or not plays a role at all.
Herring Gull (l) and Lesser Black-backed Gull (r). HG - grey back, pink legs, yellowish eyering round pale eye, yellowish gape; LBBG slate-grey back, yellow legs, orange-red eyering round pale eye and orange-red gape.
The fish crow is superficially similar to the American crow, but is smaller and has a silkier, smoother plumage by comparison.
Food is taken mainly from the ground or shallow water where the bird hovers and plucks food items out of the water with its feet. The fish crow is omnivorous. It feeds on small crustaceans, such as crabs and shrimps, other invertebrates, stranded fish, and live fish if the situation favors their capture, eggs and nestlings of birds, small reptiles, the fruits of many trees, peanuts, and grains, as well as human scraps where available.

Encounter, part 2. This is the same cinnamon Black Bear seen in yesterday's post. Its body language is very different. It takes a worried bear to give me a look like that. Interesting comparison, I think.
After I'd been working with it alone for 15 minutes or so and this bear had accepted me as non-threatening, along came a couple of tourists in their car. There was a slight bend in the road behind me, where my car was, about 50 feet away and slightly to the right. Instead of pulling up directly behind me, they stopped 75 feet short, triangulating the bear. Behind the bear was a mountain wall.
Its stress level went straight up. Ears back, fear in its eyes. I began talking to it in a soft voice and slowly backing up, trying not to trip over roots and branches, while it considered possible options. And all ended well, as I was able to give it a clear escape path, which it took.
Then I walked over and had a little talk with the tourists. I was calm. You can't teach people by yelling at them. I told them they had created a dangerous situation for me, and why: "You effectively surrounded the bear, and that put me at risk."
Of course, I knew from the start this might happen. I had my own escape route in mind all along. After a few minutes with this bear, I was pretty sure we could read each other and no one would get his nose out of joint. But tourists always increase the danger level, because "reading" wildlife is a foreign concept to them and they unwittingly do dumb things. I'd much rather photograph bears in the back country.

The male Downy on the left and male Hairy woodpecker on the right landed on the same perch within a minute of one another. I was at the same focusing distance in similar light for both shots. I ten combined the two shots in photoshop for a comparison image....
Yup. Pretty cool. PLEASE COMMENT IF YOU FAVE!

The two condors on the rock from yesterday's post are seen here in flight over that red rock habitat. They are gliders with a wing span of 109 inches (277 cm). My Sibley guide says they can be mistaken for small airplanes. 😊 A few years ago I was lucky to see them with turkey vultures, and they are formidable in comparison. They just take my breath away, over and over.
Leica M Mono, Leitz Elmar 4/135 at F5.6. The settings for both shots are broadly the same (ISO 2500 corresponds to ISO 1250 on the M8) and I tried to edit both images in the same way as well. I am not trying to demonstrate that rangefinder cameras can do animal photography - we all know that other camera types do better in this regard. The comparison is rather between the old and low resolution M8 and the more advanced M Monochrome. It turns out that in terms of sharpness, the old M8 is still going strong. Resolution is more of a problem, especially at higher ISO settings (so, the M8 would struggle with nature and landscape photography). For portrait and street, in fact for all subjects where roughness is legitimate, the old camera is a wonderful tool. The Monochrome can do all of it and is more open to post-processing intervention.

The bananas on the right look to be the perfect ripeness for eating (in my opinion—different people like different levels of ripeness when it comes to bananas). The bananas on the left appear too ripe for eating plain (again, my opinion) but they are excellent for baking or making smoothies. Both bunches of bananas are different in which ways they’re best enjoyed. When I compare my lack of capacity to achieve a lot of great things with someone in different circumstances who has the capability to do things I’m not able to it’s easy for me to fall into deep shame and guilt. I need to continually remind myself God created each of us unique and we have different experiences that shape us therefore it’s not always helpful to compare myself to others. It gives me the freedom to be who God created me to be with unique gifts and abilities and focus on growing in the ways He desires for me—which I’m still working on and probably will be for as long as I’m alive.

My first attempt at developing film at home. For me it was an overwhelming process and I’m thankful I gave it a try. There is so much satisfaction and enjoyment for me to be able to accomplish this despite my fears and most of my days being about survival without having the capacity for much “extra” stuff. Being able to see the final image is so amazing after this whole process. It turned out much better than I expected. I’m still learning.

Well here is the comparison of the photo of RL and my new pose. Hope you like! I tried to do my best. Adriana, thank you for your patience and cooperation... loviu <3
Here you can see the colouring and bill differences between an immature male and an older male Surf Scoter.
I’m posting 2 images for comparison. Which do you like best? The first image is what the camera saw and is the more realistic image. The green color in the sky is caused by airglow. The second image is my interpretation of what we would expect to perceive if we had better color vision at night (our dark vision is primarily black and white). The second image is how I usually process images, trying to make the image closer to something people can identify with. This summer I had numerous nights with marked airglow and green skies. There was a lot of wildfire smoke on the horizon which I have tried to minimize. __________________________________________. Technique: Both images made from the same captured images at 20 mm. Both images are blends made from stacked images, one set for the sky and one set for the foreground. Sky, stacked vertical panorama, 3 sets of images, 12 in set, at 13 sec, f/2.8, ISO 6400. Foreground, 9 image stack, 30 sec, f/1.8, ISO 6400.

A shot to demonstrate the difference in size between the Hairy Woodpecker (f) and Downy Woodpecker (f).
The two shots of the woodpeckers were easily combined as both were taken in similar light , on the same perch from a fixed ( tripod) distance so that the ratios and sizes were exact......layering the two shots was made easy in that at 50 % opacity I could see both images and superimpose one on top of the other by using the branch. I used the tiny knot hole under the Hairy's claw to line up both branches/layers.
Sent from Bill's iPad.
Just poked the camera at the glass window, had to avoid some reflections in the glass, you can see these in the right hand side marked with a little blue sky.. The light there was extensive so I had to shield that area with my hand around the G12 lens hood, I will load that later as a comparison, when I get back onto the PC..

Flickr, photo-sharing Web site owned by SmugMug and headquartered in San Francisco, California.
Flickr is an ad-supported service, free to the general public, that allows users to upload digital photographs from their own computers and share them online with either private groups or the world at large. In the early 2000s it won a fast-growing contingent of enthusiasts on the strength of its many social-networking features, most significantly the ability for users to discuss photographs online.
The service began as a peripheral feature in an online electronic game being developed by the Canadian software company Ludicorp. Company founders (and spouses) Stewart Butterfield and Caterina Fake ultimately abandoned the game and debuted Flickr by itself in 2004. Its key early innovation was the use of “free tagging,” a feature that enabled users to associate metadata tags—searchable keywords—of their own devising with any photographs they viewed, thus creating a large network of associations and allowing users around the world to discover each other’s work. By developing an unregulated but expansive “folksonomy,” Flickr spared itself the prohibitive cost of centrally creating links and groupings.
In March 2005 Flickr was purchased by the Internet giant Yahoo! and relocated to California. Under the Yahoo! banner, Flickr became a dominant photo-sharing service, increasing its roster of registered users from 250,000 to more than 2,000,000 in less than a year. The site continued rolling out new features, including copyright management, an interactive map of photographed locations, and customizable print products. In June 2008 Butterfield and Fake left Yahoo!, and Flickr continued to expand. In July 2008 Getty Images, one of the world’s largest photographic agencies, announced a plan to begin inviting selected Flickr members to participate in one of its commercial photo groups. Flickr was supplanted as the dominant photo-sharing service by social media companies such as Facebook and Instagram, and it also faced competition from other services that offered inexpensive online data storage. In 2017 the American telecommunications company Verizon Communications acquired Yahoo! and reorganized it into a subsidiary, Oath, and the next year SmugMug acquired Flickr from Oath.

Dear all, I will find a moment during the day to visit your photo stream, enjoy the day!
Just a quick snap to use as an example in another thread. Did not clean before, because I was in a hurry and was not trying to make something beautiful.
Panasonic 35-70mm F/2.8 (1st generation)
OM System 12-40mm F/2.8 II
The OM lens is slightly shorter at it's most compact, but is longer at it's most extended. The Panasonic, however, does not change size as it zooms.
Since I had so many pink girls here right now I figured it would be cool to take some comparison pics.
I thought it would be fun to show the direct comparison between two similar setups!

I took a shot of this striped lynx (Oxyopes salticus) mama the other day using my Vivitar (Komine) 90mm f2.8 1:1 Macro. Today, I found the same gorgeous girl still guarding her egg clutch, so I snapped a remarkably similar shot using my Phoenix (Cosina) 100mm f3.5 1:2 Macro paired with a 2x Macro Focusing Teleconverter.
Right away, you can see the difference in color reproduction. The word I keep finding is "flat". The depth of the greens, and the subtle undertones of the browns and darker shades are just missing! This Phoenix lens is a really stellar lens, but can't compare frame-for-frame with the Komine 90mm. It's also worth noting the overall level of clarity!
When you zoom in, you can start to see the difference in resolving power pretty clearly. The Phoenix does a darn good job for a stack of glass in a plastic shell, but the shot captured using my Komine a few days back is much sharper on individual details. Both shots are captured at 1:1, but magnification rate does not always mean the image is worth magnifying!
Of course, both of these lens setups are literally decades behind the times and rendered fully obsolete by modern mirrorless cameras, insane 15 frames per second burst modes, and focus peaking, but it's fun to show the budget side of the hobby! You can 100% capture worthwhile images without modern gear and guided trips, you just have to learn your equipment!
This comparison was brought to you at 1:1 by my plastic fantastic Phoenix (Cosina) 100mm f3.5 Macro, attached to a Vivitar 2x Macro Focusing Teleconverter. This photo is uncropped. This lovely little lady is around 6-7mm long!

I plan few heads from few companies and plan to match with diferent bodies.
I have found, that looking at pages each time I think of some match, is very time-consuming.
So I have chosen my fav doll companies and made this pic.
Pictures are not in scale, so some of bodies are biger than others, it was mostly done for a shapes, propotions, hips, chests etc.
But all bodies are over 61 cm.
A few days ago I posted a photo of these crocuses taken with a Carl Zeiss Jena Sonnar 135mm f3.5.
This photo was taken with a Takumar 55mm f2.2, early present version - a Gaussian design.
Scratch (bantam Old English Game hen) egg on the left.
Ameraucana (standard Wheaten) egg on the right.
I've heard that first eggs are usually small, so I'm guessing that since the Ameraucanas are just beginning to lay (one of them laid her first egg just before we got her on Tuesday) this is the other hen's first egg. I hope they'll get bigger over time, especially since they're getting lots of good food now.
