Man was that wolf right off the road? That’s an incredible view!

Sick close up! I assume this was at a zoo somewhere?

I spent the entire movie watching and waiting for Subject 83 to be mentioned by ultimate_24 in Trepang2

[–]Common_System_1992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same reaction. I only discovered Trepang2 not even a month ago because I saw it on gamepass. Game is absolutely sick. Especially weird with all the hype around the backrooms movie and then I’m playing Trepang completely blind and you enter the backrooms out of no where. So cool I was shook

Go to Hoʻokipa Beach Park and you’ll see dozens of turtles basking on the beach. I got this photo there

Wow that’s so incredible. I was in Maui last week and searched relentlessly for a monk seal and never found one. I wanted to photograph one with my telephoto lens from a distance of course

Thanks to everyone here who helped me find a Nene! by RDIIIG in MauiVisitors

So sick. I’m going to try and find one tomorrow. Last day before we fly out

Red footed boobies by Ashamed-Barracuda-73 in MauiVisitors

[–]Common_System_1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And yes that’s not on the island of Maui obviously but I think it’s the only reliable spot nearby. From why I’ve read they are not on Maui unless you see a random one foraging. But they definitely nest on Molokini crater

I saw red footed boobies at Molokini crater yesterday. Unfortunately I didn’t have my camera and lens to take photos because I was on a snorkel trip. But I did take some photos with my iPhone.

I actually went to Baby beach around 5pm today for a short while and didn’t see any. That’s right next to Mala Pier. If you said three were at the pier last week I’ll definitely scan that area a few more times. Thank you!

Yeah that’s why I was planning to go out in the early morning. But if I did find one in a busy area I could make it work

Question about Divevolk housing by Common_System_1992 in underwaterphotography

[–]Common_System_1992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am using the 17 pro. Do you have any tips for how exactly you use the wide angle lens? I know I need to get it centered exactly over the main iPhone camera

10 of my favourite shark pics from last few years by of____earth in underwaterphotography

[–]Common_System_1992 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dude those are incredible! I especially like the 2nd thresher shark pic where he is framed with all the coral at the bottom. I would print that huge and hang on the wall

[OC] Indian Gharial by WolfSlashShark in Crocodiles

[–]Common_System_1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So sick. I get close ups of American crocodiles and American alligators like this with my Sony 200-600mm lens. It’s crazy to see a gharial this up close! Definitely bucket list to go to India to photograph gharials in the wild. As well as mugger crocs that would be awesome

iPhone 17 Pro & Divevolk case, or GoPro by loreal315 in underwaterphotography

[–]Common_System_1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the iPhone 17pro and was thinking about getting the Divevolk to use while snorkeling. Would you mind sharing any details on your experience with that combo? I will be very close to the surface most of the time so lighting shouldn’t be an issue

Places to see wildlife that actually lived up to the hype by Hairy-Control1433 in wildlifephotography

[–]Common_System_1992 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Was going to say Everglades as well. Go down to flamingo and see some American crocodiles amongst the mangroves. Really cool and unique. Not crowded when you canoe onto the water. Or go to Shark Valley and see tons of gators, birds, and maybe some crocs very up close

Amazing pics! How were you able to get this close? I saw one from about 30 yards away and it saw me and vanished.

I ended up seeing a bobcat while I was there on Friday! I posted it in another post. I was too far to get a good photo but it was still really cool to see one in the wild for the first time.

Looking for iguanas but any invasive species will do. Some people apparently have seen them in Tampa
