[Previously unposted highlights from 2016] Unlike our other 2 warblers also named after a tree, the Pine Warbler is the only one accurately named. Observed in 'Pure Michigan'. (Port Huron)
Beautiful rural North Carolina. This is the Five Eagle property that has a conservation easement held by the North Carolina Coastal Land Trust. While most of the visible trees are Loblolly Pines, they are actively managing the land to restore the historic Longleaf Pine forest.
The water level was pretty low in the lake. All of the rocks that are usually submerged are sun bathing now. I really wanted to try a day shot at Pine Glades. I came here for two days and noticed the difference in what a day makes. The first day I came here the wind was blowing pretty hard, so the water wasn't calm. Plus, it was during sunset and the sky didn't have any clouds. I came back the next day and it was a different story. This time I arrived around 9:00 a.m. and the water was calm and the sky had some amazing clouds.
I also noticed the small gator (in the photo) both days. The first day it didn't want anything to do with me. The second day it seemed he got use to me and wanted to hang out. So, I took this picture of him and the amazing landscape.

Even though pine trees are classed as weeds in Australia and where I am from back in New Zealand, I still find them to be some of my favorite trees. Maybe for nostalgic reasons and also the smell.

This is one of a series of test shots taken with the Sony FE 70-200mm F4.0 G OSS lens. The primary purpose of uploading these is for letting anyone interested in this lens see some sample images, so many of the images are not especially great photos worthy of publishing. Most of these images are at the max resolution for anyone who wants to pixel peep.
Some of these pictures were shot with a 36MP Sony A7R camera, and the rest with a 24MP Sony A7-II. The A7R has a shutter vibration problem that is visible in some of the images. The A7-II has an electronic first curtain (EFC) shutter that is practically vibration-free.
The image quality from the Sony 70-200mm lens at f/4.0 is excellent, and compares with images from a Nikon AF-S 70-200mm F2.8 pro lens at f/2.8. That is a major achievement.
For anyone considering or using the Sony E-mount system, I would highly recommend this lens. It is not cheap - it is actually a bit more expensive than similar lenses from Nikon and Canon. But its quality compares well with my Nikon pro 70-200mm F2.8 lens, and I find this a very utilitarian lens in my E-mount system.
No need to feel obligated to comment - just enjoy whatever pictures you like.
