Just got my first DSLR an 70D about a month ago, so much to learn.

 

[Spoooon]

Not too bad for handheld and natural light, but nowhere near the level of the pros.

Heavy crop of the fly shot:

lots of cool plants and insects

Some fireworks from last night:

 

[CuriousMike]

Hiked up my local hill again figuring it'd afford a great view of the fireworks from multiple cities. While I saw fireworks from multiple cities, I was too far away and too high up to have the evening spectacular I envisioned.

Setting up

You can just make out a firework or two in this

It was very warm out, but I thought my boy looked incased in ice...

Some of my favorite pics taken from this Sunday's Angels vs Rangers game. So much cooler in 1080p.


A look at the view from our seats. We had a guy with a huge hat sit down in front of me. Made me think of a Seinfeld episode. I was George. LOL

CJ Wilson unloads a ball to the plate

Fielder hits a solo shot ten rows deep into right field. I'm very happy I got the shot!

Pujols takes a lead off of 1st base

Former Rangers pitcher CJ Wilson has a good night for the Angels

Big day tomorrow.

 

[zCypher]

Even though I'm not into baseball, I think those shots are pretty great!

Heard from a friend that you could see some Humpback Whales from a pier on the coast - I figured, "I probably won't see more than a flipper - but I'll try."

I've said it before and I'll say it again - 200mm on FF for anything but portraiture isn't super useful.

But it was awesome seeing these animals so close ! We literally spent 5 hours on the pier, ooh-ing and awe-ing.

Was it eating the birds?

 

[CuriousMike]

Was it eating the birds?

No - they feed on krill and anchovies.

My puppy not looking like a puppy.

 

[CuriousMike]

Good light, better ears.
