Puma (Tocho) photographed at Big cat sanctuary. Really pleased to get to spend some time with this gorgeous boy.
Delicatamente sospesi nell'aria, due gabbiani si rincorrono sopra i canali della mia città, che riflettono l'azzurro del cielo come in uno specchio
Buona giornata

Pigeon Run Falls.
Taken during a two week long camping trip to the Pennsylvania Wilds, a very scenic place with lots of great hikes and beautiful waterfalls.
Was that swirling mist on the left a flock of birds in slow motion? Not turkeys, I am sure. Happy Thanksgiving!
Wait for it...and turn on the sound.
It's amazing how its head stays so still while it flies around. If you look closely you can also see its little tongue going in and out and the feathers on the back of its head being blown around by the wind from its flapping wings. I love the moment when normal speed slows down and the sound of its chirping and flapping wings also slows down.
Shot with iPhone 6s: 720p and 240fps
BNSF's Chewelah Turn finally reaches a stretch of track that allows them to go 25 miles per hour after spending the whole day restricted to 10 MPH. The old BN era Mead sign indicates the location of this point of the railroad.
Built by the Great Northern Railroad, this section of BNSF's Chewelah Subdivision was once apart of the GN's original mainline between Sandpoint, Idaho and Spokane, Washington. After the merger of the Burlington Northern in 1971, the Northern Pacific's route further south (The Funnel), was chosen as the best route between Spokane and Sandpoint, leaving the GN's to be torn up shortly after. Since then, this line has been relegated to branch line status, where it will surely remain for the rest of its time.
I'm back in Boston - and back to decent internet speeds - so now I have to start posting stuff from my trip.
One thing I love to do when I visit California is watch the hummingbird feeders - and this time, I tried out my iPhone 6s slow mo video for the first time.
Listen to hear it chirping and look closely to see its little tongue going in and out!
We decided based on some bird books that this one is either an Allen's hummingbird or a Rufous hummingbird, which are apparently very difficult to tell apart.
This video was at 120fps and 1080p (I also took some at 240fps and 720p which I'll post later for comparison). I had to export this using iMovie on my iPhone to get it to upload to Flickr, not sure if that lost any resolution but I hope not.
Slow motion hummingbird flight and feeding, recorded with iPhone 6s. Listen for its chirps and the sound of its wings flapping!
Make sure you turn on the sound!
The iPhone 6s has two options for slow-mo video built in: 120 fps at 1080p, or 240 fps at 720p.
This one starts at normal speed and then slows down to 240fps and 720p, which I think is definitely the better speed for hummingbirds. Compare to the last one which was 120fps, and see how much more slowed down this one is - you can really see the detail as the hummingbird hovers there.
I think the reason it takes so long to go in for the flower is that I had probably just adjusted my iPhone and tripod setup, and it was suspicious of this large object right next to the feeder.
Make sure you turn on the sound!

I shot this video at 1080p and 120fps before realizing the other option was there. The resolution is nice, but the hummingbird is still moving pretty fast at this speed.
However, its still fun to see it calling / screaming even at this speed! They seem to spend half their time and energy trying to scare each other away from the feeders and absolutely refuse to share.

A wide angle lens isn't always the best choice for scenic photos; sometimes you need to get "up close and personal" with your subjects by using a long focal length; sometimes a mid range zoom works best. Note that although I used a 70-300mm lens I selected the shortest end for this image in order to include the tree in the foreground.
well, not me but the lens. One of the last images I was able to shoot with it today. It hasn't really died. It's just, now in the cold season, when the lens cools down, the aperture needs half a second to close (actually, it's fun to watch it closing in slowmo). Slightly warmed up it's faster, so apparently it's just demanding a CLA and not suffering a terminal failure...
I die a bit every time I see a forest like that one (an unfavourable trait if you live in the Black Forest region)
Whilst looking at my original image, the Harry Potter films came to mind, and the processing immediately flowed to produce this image.
i've been sick in bed for the last few days from food poisoning (mind you, i'm emetophobic). Needless to say it was probably one of the worst experiences of my entire life. But i have to say, the sound of the raindrops on my roof was probably the most soothing thing in the world.
And i'm all better now. :]

Watching snowfall coming down in slow motion is pretty cool. This is especially true during the pandemic. LOL
Regarder les chutes de neige descendre au ralenti est plutôt cool. Ce est particulièrement vrai pendant la pandémie. LOL
Hope, the neighborhood cat was kind enough to make an appearance while I was experimenting with some high speed video (240fps).
Behind the scenes on my iPhone slow-mo hummingbird videos. Actually, this was my initial setup, but after this I slowly moved the ladder and tripod closer and closer to the feeder until the hummingbird activity filled more of the frame.
The talented ballerina Michal (@michal.mangan on Instagram) jumping in slow motion. Recorded on iPhone 6s at 240fps.
Here's a behind the scenes look at my hummingbird slow mo video setup. I did a bunch of variations on this to get different angles and every time I changed it the hummingbirds wound act suspicious for awhile and then get used to it and relax.
I feel a bit bad this photo itself isn't more photogenic, but it does show the setup. I'll try to take some prettier behind the scenes shots next time ;-)
Messing around shooting high speed video at 480 frames per second.
side note: Still trying to figure out the best compression for flickr (way too blurry).
A hummingbird at normal speed and then slowed down to 8x slow motion (recorded at 240 fps and played back at 30 fps). Shot on iPhone 6s. Turn on the sound to hear it's wings humming and then slowing down to individual beats!
