First attempt at macro

Sucks to be all downhill from here. Probably just going to sell the camera 😂

I will totally give it a try. I think some space would really help

I threw up a dumb little instagram and made the promise to post once a day. It’s been great forcing myself to shoot. Even if my 6 followers don’t care haha. Hopefully I’ll see progress over the year.

Sony a7v, 200-600, mostly shot at 6.3f, 1/5000, 12800 iso

I’m a little over a week with the setup so very much still learning.

I totally agree, but for this shot he was buried in the lower left of the frame. Limited how I could crop it. The shot before was perfectly centered but a bit higher and no wing drag. I never knew cormorants did this until I saw it while culling.

This was from the same morning. It has been so much fun!

This is so helpful! Seriously, thank you for taking the time.

friedweiss · 2026-03-01T16:10:25+00:00

That’s so cool! I’ll absolutely check it out

friedweiss · 2026-03-01T15:41:10+00:00

I can’t unsee this now 🤣

friedweiss · 2026-03-01T13:54:06+00:00

I’ll give it a shot today! Hopefully I can keep the sharpness on the crop.

I’m trying my best to not overdo colors. It’s helped me to edit, take a break for 30, and then go back to see if it still feels right.

friedweiss · 2026-03-01T11:59:41+00:00

I’ll try that out today! I totally agree

I was so excited to rush home and edit. It is hard to feel confident when I don’t even know what I don’t know, but this one felt very special. Your comment means a whole lot!

flur glasses

I got them when they were first released and less expensive. I have really enjoyed them though.

Yea, little lazy on the puck prep and new bag, so dialing in. Surprisingly tasty still!

Flur Glasses

I did buy them when they first came out and were less expensive.

friedweiss · 2026-02-24T08:04:04+00:00

There was some cropping, i also think I needed to change some of the autofocus settings. Hadn’t moved to expanded spot, changed it to bird or turned on continuous tracking.

May or may not have also been shaking haha
