Canon R7, Sigma contemporary 150/600mm. It was on a low tree branch so between 2 to 4m away? The odds were NOT in my favor for this picture because I accidentally locked the camera on “ISO 100”, this handheld with 2kg+ camera/lens on a windy day. Got lucky :)

Oh that’s wonderful. I head “Robin Redbreast” before but I had no idea about Jenny Wren. Lovely!

Oh wow, gorgeous bird!

Herons look so incredibly cool. Until you see them from the front, of course. Gorgeous shot!

You drive through the fields and spot a dishevelled young woman hunching over roadkill, reaching into the corpse with pliers as flies buzz around her. You accidentally make eye contact just as she - grinning - drops a writhing maggot into a translucent plastic bottle.

Why settle when I could get a 800mm 5.6 for a mere 14k?

The only reason I didn’t impulse buy a teleconverter to tack on my impulse bought 600mm is that it would just get me (more) underexposed pictures. But the urge is real, and we don’t even have bald eagles around here.

I saw some active webrings on neocities sites!

Thanks! He’s so puffy, I figured he was cold.

Gorgeous photograph. How cold was it outside that day?

Such a beautiful bird

Amazing scene! That must have been great to watch. Less so to hear!

A handsome boi!

So mossy. It’s beautiful!

Everyone needs to head to that mastodon account because there is a whole series of amazingly adorable photo to pixel pieces!

I saw php error logs cause a full disk in a few minutes (thankfully on a shared dev server), thanks to an accidental endless loop that just flooded everything with a wall of notices…

And, working with a CMS that allows third-party plugins that don’t bother to catch exceptions, aggressive web crawlers are not a good thing to encounter on a weekend… 1 exception x 400000 product pages makes for a loooot of text.

Beautiful picture, I love that foot in the air. Also, what a gorgeous plumage.

I’ll be readying the popcorn. From the bottom of my heart, good luck.

It comes with a PWA that works well enough.

Oh, she is not!
