It is, Rain. The more I convert to black and white the more I like it. Especially for clouds. There's detail there that gets blocked out with a regular sensor. The black and dehaze sliders make it pop.

For #WaterfallWednesday, this #infrared image was recently made in #Yosemite National Park. It looks grainy. That's snow. It was coming down heavy as we enjoyed the view. #photography #landscape #EastCoastKin #waterfalls #bnw #blackandwhitephotography #ir #fullspectrum

Hey, that's nice Audrey!

Today's #BirdoftheDay theme is #WingsOpenNotFlying. I made many images on this morning of these oh so elegant snowy egrets, landing and taking off from this old snag beside a nearby lake. #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin #birds #birdsinflight #egrets #nikon #Z8

Thank you, Teri. I love that early morning sunshine.

😜

Thanks. It's in the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge near St. Marks Florida. Up here in the panhandle.

Thank you, Linda! It's my favorite too!

And same to you, Rain!

So nice Rain. What a beautiful little inflorescence.

Ha! That's for sure!

Thanks, Emma!

Thank you, Emma.

Another beautiful day. Capturing it while it's still possible.

Thank you! I love my walks along this beach. Just a camera for company.

Here's another image from my walks along the beach with my #fullspectrum camera. Most of the time, I have a 720nm filter clipped in. I love the look of ominous clouds when converted to #blackandwhite. #photography #landscape #EastCoastKin #clouds #infrared #bnw #blackandwhitephotography

Today's #BirdoftheDay alt theme is #LongNecks. I think this great blue heron fits well. Elegance in motion. It was greeting the morning sun of a new day in our local wildlife refuge, my place of escape. #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin #birds #herons #Florida #Nikon #Z8

Thank you, Audrey. They are so stunning.

Thank you, Audrey. It's a fish eat fish world out there!

Thank you, Amber!

Amazing. Such wonderful light, Armand.

The sky is struggling to decide the fate of the day.. could there be a storm, could the Sun win … The cloud activity is overhead a very still waterway surrounded by golden grasses.

The clouds are draping and deciding atop the landscape 📷🕊️ …

Thank you!

Thank you, Emma!

Thank you, Den.

Almost missed today's #BirdoftheDay theme of #SideProfiles. This beautiful snowy egret was showing her good side. One of my favorite #birds to photograph. So very elegant. #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #EastCoastKin #egrets #profile

Thank you! This image was made in one of my favorite places on earth, the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge near St. Marks Florida. In the Florida Panhandle.

It had yellow slippers. 😊

Wow, that would be crazy to witness. And photograph!

I think this is a snowy?
