    Fly Fishing & Trekking in Gabon west Africa

    Part One was already Golden Buzzer. The rest was like winning the 100m race at the Olympics in 8.8s whilst beating Usain Bolt. In the past I'd traveled to several sub-Saharan countries for work and pleasure. Gabon is now #1 for next African country to visit, how can you not want to go somewhere...

    Stuff in the Sky

    Here's the thing, I was initially looking at the image on a 27" monitor, and it was simply incredible. Then I thought to myself, and it's astonishing why these thoughts don't occur sooner, "Wonder what this'll look like on a 12' (diagonal) screen?" Behold, and here's where the mind gets truly...

    Stuff in the Sky

    I downloaded the full sized TIFF earlier, and have just spent the last 15 minutes or so having my mind blown by the total immensity and intensity of the image. Makes you want to scream at the whole wonder of it, know what I mean? Kenneth

    Stuff in the Sky

    Ah, the envy, the envy! I started browsing for equipment, and after an hour, decided that if I ever wanted to get into astrophotography the way I would like, I'd have to sell my right kidney and left lung, among other things, so the cellphone will have to do. Sigh. In any case, here are 5...

    Stuff in the Sky

    The same moon seen from the Old Continent, two nights ago. We didn't get that nice "orange" color. Taken with the S22 Ultra using its 30X digital zoom, cropped and adjusted in camera, no sharpening applied. I think it looks better than the previous photo I took (post #60 above), I like the...

    NFR Got any mammal pictures

    Poolside visitors. Spot the gliding mammal... There! The Sunda Colugo (Galeopterus variegatus). These guys can glide almost 500 ft. Nearby, a Dusky Leaf Monkey (Trachypithecus obscurus) feasts on Marang (Artocarpus odoratissimus), one of my favorite fruits Kenneth

    We got these spiders coming in...

    I love spiders! Here are three backyard species hanging inside, and outside, my parents' house. Some of you might have seen these photos elsewhere in the forum. A female Golden Orb-weaver (Nephila sp.) chowing down on a Jade-green Cicada (Dundubia sp.). Nephila exhibits extreme sexual size...

    What Are You Eating?

    Talk about making one hungry! You guys have a bright future, or present, in the food photography business. Interesting to see the heavy Italian influence. Thanks much sharing, Kenneth

    Cell Phone Pics

    I'm pretty happy with my S22 Ultra, although I can never quite get the moon as I would like it, still too far for pin-sharp images. But for stuff that's not hundreds of thousands of miles away, it does a good job. I put up some samples here: S22 Wildlife pics. I especially like the 10X...

    NJ Beach Summer Harvest

    Here's the thing. For you guys, the East Coast seems like a whole other world, since New Jersey is what, 2,500 miles from Seattle. Over here, from Rome on the west coast to Pescara on the east, I need to drive all of 130 miles. Hell, I could go to London, UK, from Rome, Italy, and still have...

    Thanks for the info, my bad, I was under the mistaken impression that the age was for the whole system including the star, not just the nebula. Kenneth

    Very nice, Canuck, but, urm, there're quite a few zeros missing from the age, don't you think 🤔😀? Thanks much for sharing, Kenneth

    Backyard Wildlife

    Just got back from my annual trip to Malaysia, 35 days of fun and sun, to say the least. Took a whole bunch of photos, as you can imagine. Moved around visiting family, here's a small sample of the stuff I encountered within 50 yards of where I was staying. All images were taken with my phone...
