Just wanted to share a few nature photos I took today after getting the Pentax KF using the 18-55 WR kit lens. First digital photos (besides my phone or that toy camera) since July 2024.
Hello fellow photographers.
About me. 73 years young, Shoot a Nikon D750, Love the outdoors, I have no particular Genre, If it moves, stands still or simply exists I'll shoot it.
I use Adobe LR & PS for post processing.
I had no idea that Nephology was the study of cloud formations. I really like cloud formations, I could potentially have a book on them.
Here are a couple a photographed yesterday during an approaching storm. The clouds looked really scary but all it did was rain! Disappointing. I wanted some...
I haven't been shooting much as of late. I did dust off the camera and go outside today without any intentions, was just messing around with some settings and I actually liked how this one came out.
It has a moody filmic feel that I enjoy.
Everytime I walk past this tree, he comes out and sits on this cut off branch. Its funny, so I had to go back inside and grab the only telephoto lens I had and took a picture of him...I got as close as I could physically without disturbing him.

I was just about to go to bed and I checked on my Instagram and somebody made story about the northern lights, I had no idea. So I went outside and checked the sky and my jaw dropped. I was STUNNED. I quickly ran back inside, grabbed the tripod, my camera and my 24-70..even my phone!
I never...
These little tiny purple flowers pop up every spring, when I see them I typically know warm weather is right around the corner. Not this week however since we are getting ANOTHER 2 feet of snow. But I managed to get out and take some photos of these little cute flowers before the snowstorm. Why...
Yesterday it looked like winter wonderland here. Very heavy wet snow fell which caused lot of outages. My power was out from 3am until about 9am. It was a crazy and stressful day but I managed to get out to take some photos. I know it's nothing special but I liked the way this leave was wedged...
We had our first serious snowfall yesterday. Today the temperature was just cold enough to start freezing the droplet's.
While this was done with a tripod, there was enough of a breeze to make it challenging.

Figured I'll share a few of them here :)
I was able to get out and do some nice walking this week on the backroads where I live and managed to capture some photos that I'm pretty happy with.

I was chilling out on the couch and started hearing all the crows going crazy. I looked out the window and there was a fox just outside the door!
Quickly grabbed my camera, the longest lens I got is my 105mm macro. But I made it work.
Okay well its not "bizzare" but not one frequently seen around here. This is due to forest fires from Canada making the sun visible with the naked eye.
I live in a small country town as you can tell and it was funny to see people come out of their homes to photograph the sun going down. Someone...
It's that time of the year here in Vermont.
Decided to use my hardly used 35mm 1.8 lens lol.

Yep the dandelions are popping up now. I saw a bumble bee today which I don't normally see in April here. But I saw this bug collecting some pollen on this dandelion, I assume it's some kind of bee.
I got nice and close as I could with the macro. I'm pretty happy with it overall. It was cloudy...
I took these two photos a month apart.
Thought it was kinda cool to see the difference one month make from March to April.

Found these while walking around my property, it was raining pretty good but figured Nikon cameras are pretty well sealed so took the chance.

I was out walking around with the macro lens and this leaf stood out to me like a sore thumb and so it peaked my interest to photograph it.

I know it's not a good photo but I thought it was interesting to see the root system of this tree that's been exposed due to years of washouts from storms.

I been pretty discouraged with my photography lately but I was messing around with the macro lens and I made this image which honest I am pretty happy with for once.

I have to admit, this is one of my favorite photos I've taken in a while that is almost exactly what I had in mind so it nice to see it become a reality.

spring rain by Nicholas Erwin, on Flickr
It's been months since I've done much of any photography. According to Lightroom I've taken less than 100 photos in the last 6 months and most of them are random photos/test shots just to keep the battery good.
It's finally spring here in Vermont and Crocuses are popping up. I know this isn't...

I am getting obsessed with sunflowers. This is the latest in a long line of attempts to get a desktop wallpaper from my garden.
Comments always welcome.

Hello Community,
during the Corona period, I discovered timelapse photography for myself and was able to capture a sunset and some beautiful clouds. Just take a look.
OBX sound side near Frisco. Posted this same pic like several years ago but I spruced it up with some auto-levels and it looks much better than the old post. Thought it was worth reposting.
