    Pallid bat at oasis

    ...unless it's just touching the water to cause a spray of droplets. Trigger by Phototrap. Cheers, Rick
  2. Thanks Sandy, but situation hasn't changed.
  3. Unfortunately, mine is still not working....
  4. Are the legacy @photo.net email addresses still working? Mine has stopped redirecting emails. Can it be reset? Thanks RickDB

    La Pedrera

    Gaudi's genius for design captured beautifully - taking away the color, which is an important element of his work, emphasizes the architectural lines and lets us see his artistic vision in a different light. Thanks for sharing.

    Maria Gern

    Great composition made outstanding with the fine balance of light. Very well done, thanks for sharing.
  7. Often referred to as the poor man's Rolls Royce, definitely has an opulent air about it. Looks beautifully restored and I love your setting. I would suggest the composition would be improved if there was a little more space between the front wheel and the bottom border - you can afford to loose some sky (which has a sensor spot that needs removing) . Enjoyed seeing this, thanks for sharing. RickDB

    Stormy Dawn

    Thanks Todd. Getting up before dawn and hiking in the freezing cold was rewarded with a great dawn sky....

    Midnight Sonnet

    Simple and yet elegant. Nicely done! RickDB
  10. Thanks Daniel. Senja Island in Arctic Norway is spectacular - worth the effort of getting there for the landscapes.

    GridLock

    Nicely done! A fine B&W rendering with great composition, I do like architectural verticals to be vertical. Thanks for sharing, RickDB

    Palace on Wheels

    Absolutely. The huge divide between rich and poor is on display everywhere in India. The opulent and spectacular palaces of the Maharajas are adjacent to some of the poorest homes. Delhi reminds me of what Victorian London must have been like. It seems things have improved in the past twelve years since I was last there, but I suspect the very poorest may be even worse off. The key to change is education, and that is available to all children whatever their status.
  15. Renaming didn't help. So I created a new gallery, moved the photos there and deleted the old one. Seems to have worked as I can sort everything now. Thanks for your help Sandy.
  16. Thanks Sandy. I can't add photos because when I go to add a new photo the dropdown list of available galleries does not list the Norway gallery. Similarly, when I go to reorder the galleries, the Norway gallery is not on the list. BTW, all these functions work with my other galleries.
  17. My "Norway" gallery shows up with two pictures. However, I cannot add pictures to it, sort the gallery amongst my other galleries, or the photos within the gallery because it doesn't show up on the drop down options list. Any ideas on how to "unlock" it?

    Pallid bat at oasis

    Thanks! Timing is all electronic. The camera is pre-focused on the point at which a bat will break an IR beam, thereby triggering flash units. The short duration of the flash freezes the motion. Of course you don't know when a bat will come along so you set the camera on continuous shooting with the shutter set at 30s and hope just one bat comes through at a time. It does need to be pitch black, so out in the desert at night is ideal.
