DavidTriplett Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 This is the additional weekly image thread for the Nature Forum. While images posted to this thread should still be nature in theme, it may contain a small amount of human-made objects and therefore less restricted than the Monday in Nature threads. Please see this discussion for more details: Alternative weekly thread in Nature forum Each participant please post no more than just one image per weekly thread. Many members will appreciate any information you are willing or able to provide regarding location, shooting process, exposure settings, equipment, and information on the subject(s), including scientific and/or common names. White-faced Ibis (Plegadis chihi) at the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge. This image was captured in 2018 using the Nikon D7100+Tamron 150-600mm. Note the "double vision" character of this lens' OOF subjects, which is one reason I've since shifted to the Nikkor 200-500/5.6. Missing focus by even a very small degree produces this double image, making less-than-perfect images far more unacceptable than if they were simply a little less sharp. This lens is great when I nail the focus, but is too unreliable, resulting in far too few keepers. It has been back to Tamron for service without any change in performance. Due to the extreme drought there are far fewer photogenic specimens at the Refuge this year, so I'm posting from some legacy collections. ! STILL HOPING SOMEONE WILL STAND IN FOR ME AS REQUESTED IN A SEPARATE POST! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
