    Birds of Prey Centre (Bedford)

    Hello, Anyone been here for a full day outing? What focal lengths would you recommend on FX? I've got 70-200 2.8, 300mm 2.8, and 500mm 2.8 that I could take for the day. Not sure how far they are letting the birds fly out and returning.

    Buachaille Etive Mòr

    I do see what you are saying. Interestingly enough, the only shadow that is mine in here is the tripod which I could work on. I was out of the picture and sun areas with a remote shutter. The unevenness of the land has given off some of that shadow unfortunately.

    Daks Headed to Normandy (image heavy)

    75th Anniversary D-Day Celebrations here in England. These are a combination of Douglas C-47 Skytrain and Dakota aircraft. These have flown in from around the world so this was a massive undertaking. Here are just a few I captured as they took off and headed for Normandy.

    Views from Sgùrr Alasdair (image heavy)

    I lugged a D850, 70-200 2.8, and 20mm 1.8 up Sgùrr Alasdair. These were all taken with the 20mm 1.8. Weather makes it hard to believe I was in Scotland.

    Scotland Isle of Skye in Early May

    I spoke to some folks the day before who went up the same ridge you mention they said their day was 9 hours after coming down the "Great Stone Shoot" as you call it. I call it a very broken scree chute that was hell. I was not fit for it and this was my first munro. I decided after talking...

    Scotland Isle of Skye in Early May

    I was in Glen Coe on the 13th and 14th of May. On the 13th a military helicopter flew through there really low towards the end of the day going both directions. Of course, my camera was nicely tucked away so I could enjoy it without snapping any pics.

    Scotland Isle of Skye in Early May

    I made it out there as well. It didn't rain once in 4 days. Almost didn't think I was in Scotland. Buachaille Etive Mòr with the early morning light revealing itself. From the top of Sgùrr Alasdair looking down towards Glenbrittle Camp Site. Light wasn't the best but the view made up for it.

    Nikon 24mm f1.4g or Nikon 24mm f1.8G

    I know you ordered the Sigma but I was going to say that although the Nikon 24 1.4 is very sharp, it exhibits coma for the night sky photography. For this reason I purchased the 20mm 1.8 (not a typo). It's very light but not weather sealed. I have the Nikon 24 1.4. I like it because of how...
