Thanks Rob. Amazing what a telephoto lens will do when your subject is concentrating on something else!

I don't really need much when it comes to lenses.... I really want the following for each:
- a long-range telephoto (200-300)
- a decently fast prime (35/40/50mm)
- a wideish tele (Solved with a 10-24mm on F and a 16-50mm on Z)

Kestrel perhaps on the prairie

I took this photo before I got my telephoto lens. Not bad a shot given the strong light (to which we on the prairie are unaccustomed). Not sure this is a kestrel. Don't recall the underside of kestrels' tails being so strongly barred, and the colors are so bleached out. Perhaps it's a juvenile, or some other species.

New toy arrived, the first real telephoto lens I've owned, 70-300mm f/4-5.6. I was surprised it came complete in the original box since I bought it used from mpb.com

Finally started work on that shelving unit I wanna build out of the recycled wood I got from that futon I found on the side of the road. All I did was clamp down a 2ftx2ft plywood with a guide for a jigsaw cut, and then had to sit down to rest.

POV from my gaming chair.

#Workshop #Woodworking
Telephoto of my workbench with plywood and pine planks each side of it, lots of tools on the wall behind it, and a sheet of plywood clamped down to the bench in the middle.

People post beautiful photos taken with telephoto lenses, and it's great to see animals that I would otherwise only see as dots in the distance. I try to photograph the tiny things that my phone camera can capture, but the principle is the same—you won't see […]

[Original post on mastodon.social]
In the foreground of the macro photograph is a moss reproductive stalk with a capsule and cap. Another one can be seen at the bottom of the photograph. The capsule in the center is in focus, with a clear drop of water hanging from it. In the background are green moss leaves, and droplets, out of focus and blurred.

I need a better telephoto for #birds. Any recommendations for a Canon? Mistletoe bird this morning in my acacia.

Thank you. It was one of those mornings when all the colour was just above the horizon so I was isolating details with a short telephoto.

こちらは単焦点レンズで撮影。
私は３種類のレンズを換装しながら移動していたのですが、なかなかたいへん。

見ていると、超望遠レンズだけで全部撮っている人がけっこう多かった気がしますね。

そのあたり、セオリーとしてはどうなのでしょう？
This photo was taken with a prime lens. I was moving around while switching between three different lenses, which was quite a lot of work. Looking around, it seemed like quite a lot of people were taking all their photos with only super telephoto lenses. What's the theory behind that?

How far would you go to right a wrong? ‘The House With 46 Chimneys’ is a spooky adventure story for younger readers involving a Scottish family mystery and the haunting of the ruined Dunmore Park, seen here.
Available as a paperback, Kindle, Kobo or Apple:
www.arachnid.scot/book-h46c/in...
The image shows a distant telephoto view of the ruins of Dunmore Park. They are partly obscured by trees, which are growing to the sides and on top of the ruined house. Large numbers of decorative chimneys and a few narrow turrets project from the upper part of the ruins. The front cover of ‘The House With 46 Chimneys’ is shown in the bottom right corner.

I lowered my camera instantly & tried to play innocent. Difficult to do when my telephoto zoom lens is 12 inches long!

A goddess with skin the color of whole milk jumped out of the Hearse & glided to me. Of course she had a Romanian accent. "What do you think you are doing?!" She hissed at me.

Once you get used to having a telephoto lens on your phone it’s hard to go back

That's gorgeous. I've always had such difficulty getting pictures of butterflies and bees etc. I get close to them and they just fly away. Even when I use an SLR with a telephoto lens, I still have trouble, and I hardly use my SLR anymore, because it's a mission, and I always have my phone on me.

My current camera setup

- Sony FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM II: it's on my camera 80% of the time. Versatile and accurate at every length.
- Sony FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM II: my favorite lens and telephoto of choice
