Crow hitches a ride on a Bald Eagle! Pacific Northwest Ubird?
No? So what's really going on here? The crow is harassing the Bald Eagle to try and scare him away from the crow's favorite fishing grounds. Did it work? Well, for a few minutes it did, then the eagle came back.
You may have seen a...

I've added a new feature, "featured discussions". We now have a new front page for the forum. I installed it last week, and never got around to finishing setting it up before the Mt Rainier Railroad announced they were closing... wait. NOT closing... OK, we're closing but we're gonna sell the...

In a reply to one of my eagles, Bill mentioned motion blur, and whether not people want to include it.
I have a general rule for any kind of a "Special Effect". That is "If you use an effect, it should be obvious that it was intentional"
A typical example would be shooting on an angle. A...

I totally thought this was a joke / Photoshop, but it's not!
1) That's really cool. 2) I wanna go there. 3) Where do I get a hummingbird camera drone? I can finally get good hummingbird photos...

During our annual (until this year) visit to Yellowstone in the fall, found this Bull Elk with his herd. One of his ladies was on the other side of the river, and he didn't like that idea, so he strolled over to convince her to join the rest of the herd by him. With a bit of good luck and...

The photo gallery section of the forum is feeling neglected. We haven't had many new photos there in months. Please consider posting a couple of your favorites there.
You may wonder "How do I know where to post? The gallery or the forum?" Well, either one is fine, but here's my suggestion. If...

All of my other discussion forums have an "off topic topic". A place you can just say hello, comment on the weather, talk about your current projects, and talk with your fellow forum members.
You don't have to be "on topic here".
Like any good bar, we have one rule. NO religion or politics...

On our most recent trip to Yellowstone, there was a full moon during our visit. I decided to go out and do some night photography. While on the way to my primary shot, I had an idea. I told my wife "Wonder if I can do Old Faithful and the moon?" With no internet to check the eruption time, I...

So... About that "Pacific Northwest Photography" thing. Just how strict are we about that? Well, not much at all. It's our primary topic, but all photos and photographers from any region are welcome.
Here's the deal. When I started this place, everyone and their dog had a photography...

Offer extended through the end of May. They have great classes, and while some are Nikon specific (Getting to know your Nikon DLSR, Using the SB5000 flash etc), many of them are very general in nature and work no matter what gear you're using.
There's no gimmick, or catch to this. Classes that...

I post a lot of blogs, the information is useful and helps the search ranking for the website.
However, I realize that the regulars are often just looking for new posts from other members. So to help you find that, I've modified the "What's New" on the home page. It's now select categories...
