Finally caught an aerial shot of my dog in the air going after the ball. Was pretty happy with this one. Show with the A7R4 and the 28-105 lens.

You looking at me?
Another goose from the Santa Ana River in Yorba Linda.
Schnauzer at play
A9ii with the 100-600 shooting at 1/1000 to capture the dog in action. It was late in the day so the sun had set which allowed her face to show. I ran the pictures through Topaz Denoise to clean them up and make them look better. Pretty happy with how they came out, could have done more to make them a little less noisy.

T33 Shooting Star
Planes of Fame flew their T33 Shooting Star last month and I was on hand to get some shots. Kind of washed out given the heat and haze from the day. Shot with the A9ii and the 100-400. Didn’t use the tele extender, but I probably should have for these shots.
Andree Clark Bird Refuge
A few weeks ago we were up in Santa Barabara for a vacation so I went over to the Bird Refuge in the morning to do some shooting. It was an overcast day so I was up at some pretty high ISOs. However I was able to catch some of the tern’s doing their morning feedings. It was cool to watch them go across the water and eat. I edited the shots in Lightroom and then took them into Topaz to correct for the noise.
Joshua Tree Astrophotography 8-7-21
Found a weekend after the new moon to go out and shoot the Milky Way. Figured this would be my last trip out for the year until I had to wait until next year to do it again. It was a clear night and the Milky Way was beautiful in the sky. I was surprised to see the number of people that were out there also doing photography. I am pretty happy with how the shots came out, the only issue being Palm Springs in the distance and that everything was sitting on top of that glow. I might try to do a light filter next year.
Hummingbirds
Last of the shots from the hummingbirds in my backyard from the last week. I decided to get rid of my feeder as I just can’t see feeding non hummingbirds and they were consuming most of the feeder. The poor hummingbirds were not able to get to anything. It was fine while it lasted, may be I will do it again next year.
Corsair F4U-1A
Planes of Fame flew their Corsair F4U-1A over a couple of days last week. It was nice to see the plane up in the air, took some pictures of it and then edited them in Lightroom. Still out practicing getting ready for the first airshows of the season that will be coming up soon. Rally excited for Airshows to be happening again and looking forward to being out seeing the planes fly.
Bolsa Chica Reserve shooting using Topaz Denoise
Was out at the Bolsa Chica Reserver a couple of weeks ago. Early morning shooting and a cloud cover required a high ISO. I took the shots into Topaz Denise to clean up the images. Pretty happy with the results, one of these days though I will make it out and it won’t be overcast.
Additional Astrophotography in Joshua Tree
Went back over the 4th of July weekend to take some shots. Unfortunately the cloud cover caused the shots to not be perfect. However I think there are some good ones that I was fairly happy with it. I did some additional edits to them to make them look a little better and take out some of the highlights and fix some of the issues that I did see in them. All shot with the my Sony A7Riv and the 16-35 F4 lens.
