Music
What if someone can’t hear
Can they hear music?
I am Deaf , YES THIS IS OFFENSIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A reader e-mailed to say she had become fascinated with bird-watching and asked, "What's the best camera for taking pictures of birds and other wildlife?"
The answer is simple -- it's the camera you have with you.
Think about that for a minute. In my truck, I usually have several digital single-lens reflex cameras with auto-focusing zoom and telephoto lenses that range from 18 to 650 millimeters.
With these cameras, I can get close-ups of a dove sitting on a nest a foot away, stop the motion of a hummingbird's wings at 20 feet or record the fierce glare of an osprey flying 100 yards away.
But many of the best bird pictures I have were made with a Canon Powershot SX230, a point-and-shoot digital camera that at $250 costs about half as much as the cheapest lens for the DSLRs.
The reason is that the lightest DSLR and telephoto lens weighs about 4 pounds and is 14 inches long. The Canon Powershot is 4 inches long by 2 1/2 high by an inch wide, weighs about a half-pound and nearly always is in my pocket or backpack. There are dozens of cameras from other manufacturers that will do the same thing.

I will point out photo opportunities, help each photographer visualize and compose images, help them use the light, and offer feedback on their work. However, to get the most of this tour and the abundance of photo opportunities, tour attendees should already have a basic knowledge of how their their cameras work. I will answer questions on basic camera use, f-stops and shutter speeds, use of tripod and long exposures, and point out scenes that may lend themselves to good HDR or panoramic imaging techniques....

Make hay meadow photos while the sun shines
Or maybe you could try a slow shutter speed, to capture a zephyr of wind transforming flowers to an abstract blur of colour. Late hay cuts in traditional meadows give ground-nesting birds a chance to complete their breeding cycle, so look out for

What a week for birders Martin Eley saw a great egret in the wetlands along the Airport parkway in Ottawa. Calvin Hanson has two pictures of a beautiful egret in Luneneburg. In one of them the bird has a tiny minnow in its bill, a very small snack for such a large bird. |
