Calling all Photography nerds!

Alright, I'm heading out on the trails with my camera today! Look at these shots.
Currently shooting mostly video with a Sony A7S2 but pics need to become more of a thing.

 

True. It is actually kinda funny cause I’ll take a photo edit it hmmm post and they are like how does it look that good. My response is always. Learn to edit

 

Imperial Sand Dunes, CA. About 2.5-3hrs east of San Diego.

 

Here are a few shots from my trip out to Joshua Tree.

 

Looks like the burning bush.

Did you see Moses wandering in the desert?

 

What's your camera and settings used? Very nice images.

 

Nice work - you gotta post camera specs/settings since you are on a photo blog cause everyone wants to know. Did you have a full moon lighting the truck? I love getting campfire lighting rock formations. Taken May 2018. D610, 2500 ISO 10 second exp with Rokinon 14mm at 2.8.

 

Lol. Oddly enough there was a guy in the campsite down the way that could've passed for Moses.

Thanks guys!! Much appreciated.

Shooting with Sony A7III. First and last images were shot with a Sony 10-18 f/4 iso 640, shot at 20 seconds. My goal was to try and shoot the milky way but the timing of the trip and moon phase was off so we had a full moon that night. It did provide some great light to take these shots though. Used Lightroom to edit a bit.

 

beautiful!

 

Jump Champs was a hit this last weekend. Got some BANGER shots even though I mainly shoot video now. Heres a shot of the camburg ranger hitting the jump contest for second place.

When I get some photos edited, Ill post in this thread.

 

I mainly shoot video, but have a few pics I would like to get enlarged and put on metal of my trip out West this past year. Anyone ever used Costco for large prints and was it good quality? Everything I've bought from Costco seems like good quality and since I'm a member, their prices seem to beat everyone that I have checked with about getting prints.

 

Got a new toy for my birthday last week. My wife and dad surprised me with a new Canon EOS 6Dmkii to replace my OG 5D. Haven't gotten to shoot a huge amount with it yet but so far this has been my favorite shot.

Early morning fog burn off in the Carolina Highlands near Dupont State Forest. 6D MKii 28-105 L4 at 105 F5.0 1/160 sec and iso of 100

 

Any military photographers here?

 

I did 30 years in the Navy as a Photographer. 22 of those years at Combat Camera in San Diego. Then I worked as a Photographer for the Marines at MCRD San Diego and now I am the Lead Photographer at Fort Campbell. I took this panoramic of the 101st Division yesterday.

 

wanna be. does that count?

 

Awesome! Im at about 3 years now and spent 2 out on Guam and am now at Fort Meade! Thats a huge group photo!

 

Sure, why not are you already in?

 

Works for me!

 

The only course I've taken at the School House is the VIM Course. All my others were Navy courses down in Pensacola. I've been to Meade quite a few times though to visit with future MC's.

 

I am. About to hit 16 years. I dabble in photography....and by dabble I mean I buy expensive glass and make plans to.go out and shoot but never get around to it :/
