How to Extract Detail from an Image and Enhance Texture with DXO PureRAW 4

1 m ago (A Photography Blog - Thomas Fitzgerald Photography): DXO Pure Raw is a very interesting application. It’s primary purpose is noise reduction, and if you’ve heard of the software, removing noise from an image is probably what you most associate with the software. However, with version 4 they opened up a very interesting alternative use of the application. By allowing you to change the way the algorithm works, you can actually turn the noise reduction down and the detail recovery up, and the result can be a pretty impressive level of...

New Presets Update

1 m ago (A Photography Blog - Thomas Fitzgerald Photography): Just a quick update on the presets that I posted about last week. I made the cardinal mistake of giving a timeline for these when I wasn’t ready. So, needless to say, I was a bit optimistic when I said that I’d have them out within about a week. It’s taking a bit longer than I had anticipated (it always does) so they’re not quite ready yet! But hopefully not too much longer.

I was similarly amused by the voices of South American antbirds singing in the Laotian jungle in Herzog’s Rescue Dawn.

Photographing a Cycling Race from a Motorbike

However, I’m not throwing in the towel and I hope that one day I’ll be lucky enough to be part of the peloton – well, as a photographer, at least.

A large group of brown pelicans was circling above the ocean just offshore and taking turns diving like falling spears in pursuit of fish.

I like the advantages of a Nikon Z8 over my D800E, such as being able to crank the ISO up to 9000 to get a fast shutter speed for bird and other widlife photography, and to eliminating mirror-slap during focus-stacking and timelapse photography. The one disadvantage that holds me back is the means of focus-stacking in mirrorless cameras.From what I gather,...

Riding the Wind

2 ms ago (True Nature Stories): Brown Pelicans Flying Into The WindI had the unusual sensation of feeling a little groggy again during my walk this morning, but I think I figured out what's going on. I believe the reason is that I haven't been wearing my glasses on my walks. My vision is okay enough to walk around, but I need glasses to drive, and without them the world is just a tad fuzzy (my prescription is basically 1.5-diopter reading glasses). The grogginess seemed to coincide with my decision to walk glasses-free,...
