Dealing with noise is one of those inevitable things that almost all photographers face to some degree with their work. Folks who primarily shoot indoors under controlled lights in a studio can create as much light as they need for the subjects being photographed. So, they are less prone to worry about noise in their images.
Those of us who shoot in less controlled environments, like dark indoor settings or outdoors, may have to deal with noise on a fairly regular basis.
Towards the end of our latest trip to New Zealand we visited the Governors Bay Jetty as we explored parts of the Banks Peninsula.
We are pleased to announce that website translations for the articles on our photography blog are now available in a wide variety of languages .
This article features a selection of Bird Kingdom outtakes that were captured during an earlier visit when I was creating images for my 1200mm EFOV Test article. Photographing birds at an indoor facility with a equivalent field-of-view of 1200mm has some limitations, not the least of which is finding subject birds at suitable distances.
The internet is full of must have myths, and this is particularly true when it comes to photography gear and related equipment.

Of course the ultimate blame for those purchase errors lies with me… for having followed ill-advised suggestions.
This short posting shares some links from a number of sources that discuss new OMDS products for 2025. As regular readers know, this is not a camera gear review site and we do not do reviews of equipment that we do not actually own and use.
This article shares some handheld images taken in Whakarewarewa Forest which is near Rotorua on the North Island of New Zealand. We spent about an hour and a half exploring some of the walking trails, as intermittent rain fell.
The 2024 Oamaru Christmas Parade happened to coincide with our visit to Oamaru during our recent trip to New Zealand. This article shares some of the images I captured as the Oamaru Christmas Parade progressed through the town.
This article discusses a recent bird-in-flight, intensive practise session I did along the shoreline of Forty Mile Creek Park… and some of the planning that went into it.
In my mind, casually grabbing a camera and going out to create a few impromptu photographs does not constitute a practise session. There is no clear objective. There is no forethought or preparation. Nor is there any discipline involved with the activity.
This article features a selection of recent handheld images of gulls landing on snow along the shoreline of Forty Mile Creek Park.
