You shooting with Sony again? When is you next WDW trip?

Back again from another WDW trip last weekend. Picked up a used Zeiss Batis 18mm and thought it performed really well. Got some really great photos with my cheap Sony 50mm as well. Overall was a fun weekend, stayed at The Dolphin for the first time in almost 20 years, forgot how nice it was staying close to those parks and in that area.

Great shots. Wait till Star Wars opens, the popularity of the Dolphin will soar.

Mike, Jen is working on her MSN degree so it’ll be a while before we make it back. We just spent 10 days in WDW for the New Year. I used the A7II on the trip, but didn’t take as many photos as I would’ve liked.

It's been a little while since I shared some local wildlife shots...so here's a selection of some colorful beasts from around the Florida wetlands with the A6300 and FE100-400mm GM:

A colorful purple gallinule:

A great blue heron soaring overhead in a bumpy cloudy blue sky:

A northern cardinal hiding in the shady forest, but standing out anyway:

A green heron perched on a low reed over the water, ready to strike at the fish below:

The lovely roseate spoonbill showing off some mating colors:

A green iguana, turning on the orange colors to attract a mate:

Normally a dull white bird with dull yellow bill and black legs, come mating season the cattle egret can turn on some color, especially in the face:

The great egret can only turn the base of his bill a green color for mating - but he has another trick in his arsenal: he grows out long feathers on his back that can be fanned out peacock-style to make a wonderful display for any potential mate to see:

A flock of black-hooded, aka 'Nanday' parakeets flying past in a burst of color in the blue sky:

A small Florida native, the green anole does sport a lovely shade of green - though he's also a bit chameleon-like in that he can change his body color to browns, reds, and blacks to blend in to different surfaces. Here, he's flashing his dewlap at me to show he's not intimidated:

A yellow-bellied sapsucker, showing off her red head and nice pattern:

The beautiful and rather noticeable bird that can't be missed - the male painted bunting showing off his full palette:

Lots of black and white birds like to still have a little bit of color to be noticed - on this black-necked stilt, it's the pink legs and vivid red eye:

Another male painted bunting, hiding deep in the shade of a low fan palm just 8 feet away from me - even in shadow it's impossible to hide when you're this colorful:

A tiny tiny tiny little thing, the ruby-throated hummingbird often doesn't look 'ruby-throated', unless the light hits the black feathers under their neck from the right angle...here's a male showing off his 'rubies':

The most challenging way I could think of to test the Sony A9 upgraded real time tracking... NYC Street photography and candid street portraits... In many ways, more challenging than shooting sports.

The Samyang - Rokinon 85mm F/1.4... it's a step behind the GM, but it's a very impressive lens and a great option for those who want to save some money.. see the full review... https://enthusiastphotoblog.com/rokinon-samyang-85mm-f-1-4-review-for-sony/

The Sony FE 24mm 1.4 has just become my favorite lens ever. These are JPEGs with small adjustments in LR.

Eiffel Tower during blue hour by Adam Brown, on Flickr

Most people think of a super zoom for travel, but when I travel, ultrawide becomes my go-to lens. Examining in detail, 7 days in Paris with the Sony 12-24mm on the Sony A7riii: https://enthusiastphotoblog.com/paris-with-sony-12-24mm-ultrawide-lens/
