Sometime before midnight (whatever time zone you are in) this Sunday, 11 November 2018, post the best photo you have taken this week. Any subject, any style—just give us your best shot.

 

If you can, list your EXIF info and any special lighting setups you may have used.

How do you like that 18-400?  I almost bought that but got the 16-300 instead to keep the weight down.

This was it's first trip out. The convenience factor makes it a worthwhile buy. It seems to be sharp but its real easy to have your hand on the focus ring and inhibit the autofocus :wacko:

Not much photographic activity for me this week.  The weekend was filled with other stuff, though.  In case you're not familiar, the Cyclone Rake is a giant vacuum machine for picking up fallen leaves.

When I was a teenager I worked in a cemetery they had one the size of a 16+ft cube van.

Mine holds 40 bushels of leaves in the hopper and yesterday I had to empty it 6 times.  I wish it was bigger.

That means, Charles, you have to come up with two things:

  1. Proper sex description
  2. A better perch!  :P :P :P

Done some research and it appears that could be female or young birds. There appear to be a pair in the park that have produced several young this year and are hanging around in a flock, probably due to my keeping feeders filled with peanuts.
