I did a little composite image editing here. While I was taking some long exposures of the waterfall some boys came by and went to the other side of the creek to do some fishing. I snapped a picture as they were crossing and merged the fast shutter speed image of one of the boys with the long exposure images to get him frozen in mid-jump over the smooth running water. Let me know what you think.

<p>Shun I agree, looks like the fish you mentioned.</p>

<p>Shun, it's a goby of some sort. They have some pretty sharp spines on their dorsal and pectoral fins. maybe the heron didn't feel like dealing with them after all.</p>

Annoying aesthetic trend in photography
sgust replied to raczoliver's topic in Casual Photo Conversations
<p>Just to add my 2¢. What might be very nice image to the majority of people who haven't spent any time learning the technical details of photography, might seem kitchy or poorly executed to a photographer. Neither point of view is more valid from an aesthetic perspective in my opinion. Your level of sophistication in the different aspects of photography very much informs your opinion when evaluating a photo. I know my tastes have evolved over time and I hope they continue to do so. But I think it's important to keep in mind that the vast majority of people do not evaluate an image like the type of people who would frequent a forum dedicated to photography. So sit back and enjoy the images that you like and pass the others by, who knows someone out there might just like them.</p> -
<p>Rufous Nightjar (Caprimulgus rufus)<br> <a href="/photo/18230413&size=lg"><img src="http://d6d2h4gfvy8t8.cloudfront.net/18230413-md.jpg" alt="" width="680" height="392" /></a></p>

<p>From what I hear you used to be able to take a dip but now it's fenced off with "Do not enter" signs. The color really is surreal. If you go to the end of the trail you reach the spot where a underground spring mixes with the river and the chemical reaction takes place that creates the color. It goes from perfectly clear to opaque light blue in a matter of a few feet.</p>

<p>Well, it's been a while since I've been on PN. Nice to see that Laura is still doing the Monday in Nature posts. A few weeks ago I got to revisit the Rio Celeste waterfalls with my new 10-stop ND filter.<br /> <a href=" src="http://d6d2h4gfvy8t8.cloudfront.net/18228593-md.jpg" alt="" width="680" height="415" /></a></p>

<p>Andy, nice close-up!<br> Well, Christmas brought me a new (well new for me) A77 and I'm finally getting around to taking some hikes with it. Spotted this White Hawk <em>(Leucopternis albicolis) </em>in a tall tree luckily he didn't spook as I made my way up a hill next to the tree to get a more level view.<br> <a href=" src="https://c4.staticflickr.com/8/7539/16112336256_db26302586_z.jpg" alt="" width="448" height="640" /></a><br> You can click on the image to see a larger version.<br> Happy New Year everyone.</p>

Has anyone tried the new Yongnuo YN560III Flashes with a Sony camera?
sgust replied to sgust's topic in Sony/Minolta
<p>Thanks Mark</p> -
<p>I'm interested in using a pair of radio triggered flashes and found pretty positive reviews of the Yongnuo YN560III which has an integrated radio receiver. These don't seem to be available with a Sony flash mount, but I only plan on using them wirelessly, so it's not really an issue. Now my question is do they have a hot shoe mount trigger for Sony that would work for triggering the YN560III's. Also where is the best place to order them from?</p>
