Jpeg Test shot with the Z9 I always shoot Raw but wanted to test the size of image and quality so after a edit with Affinty Photo this shot almost doubled in size a raw file yesterday after edit was 54 MB though some were smaller.
Pity that leaf is there I cloned out some of it.
Grus grus
Lac du Der : retour au dortoir
Photo prise depuis la route sur Digue en fin de journée. Il reste encore quelques grues mais plus rien à voir avec les dizaines de milliers en novembre.
Lac du Der: back to the dormitory
Photo taken from the road on the dike at the end of the day. There are still a few cranes but nothing to do with the tens of thousands in November.
Great Horned Owl
The Great Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus) with its long, earlike tufts, intimidating yellow-eyed stare, and deep hooting voice, the Great Horned Owl is the quintessential owl of storybooks. This powerful predator can take down birds and mammals even larger than itself, but it also dines on daintier fare such as tiny scorpions, mice, and frogs. It’s one of the most common owls in North America, equally at home in deserts, wetlands, forests, grasslands, backyards, cities, and almost any other semi-open habitat between the Arctic and the tropics.

I have shot similar compositions before on Camel Hump Hill, I wanted to try out this lens and using my video lamp for lighting the foreground. The problem with a 50mm lens is despite quite a distance between the camera and subject, when focused on the stars the foreground isn't sharply focused. I guess I should do a Sky Replacement but that's not really my style! My knees remind me that I'm not as young as when I started climbing this hill years ago! Single shot, 1 video lamp for extra lighting. Near Hawker, SA.
