The D. H. Day Farm (and barns) are my all time favorite barns simply because of the architecture. These are located in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore area of Michigan. It was privately owned by the Day family for many years, but a coupl...
I just got back from vacation, catching up on a million emails. Plenty of deleting (of course) and quickly reading through the others. One that I quickly read had something to do with the Canon U.S.A. homepage, and how the next time I sign in I wou...
I went out to shoot the Milky Way a few weeks ago when we finally had clear skies. Not uncommon for me, but usually I shoot with a 15mm lens to get as much of not only the Milky Way in the shot, but also some foreground as well. While out there on ...
The Canon EOS 6D is reaching the end of its service life soon. Last day is October 31, 2025. If you have one, and it needs service, better send it in quickly.This camera was one of my favorite DSLRs for many years. It was a low light beast back in...
Thought I would share a few of the images I took at Hocking Hills State Park in Ohio two weeks ago. It was our first time there. My wife wanted to go there for her birthday, so we drove down and stayed for 5 days. The park is stunning in its beaut...

Have you tried a different video editor? There are plenty that edit mp4 format. I can't tell you which one is good vs. bad because I don't do much video. When I do I use Adobe Premier Rush, but there are cheaper alternatives.
"I cannot tell you how many times I forget to set white balance specifically."For 95% of my work I shoot RAW, so Auto WB works perfectly fine. But when I have to shoot in jpeg only mode, such as for an event where the organizers expect a few thousan...
John came to the same conclusions that I did, but he provided you with a lot more info than I would have with the screenshots (thanks, John!). I opened it in both DPP4 and in Adobe Canon RAW. I had a bit better luck with DPP4, even though the progr...
