Check out The Physics of Superheroes. It's a fun read.

One small bit of related advice: if you're using both a lens with stabilization and a tripod, make sure to turn stabilization off while it's mounted on the tripod.

It's somewhat counter-intuitive, I know, but I've found that if it's left on, the lens tries to compensate, and the resulting images are a bit blurry / shaky.

I think upper left might be Davey Richards? Not 100% sure though.

 

Really liked the shapes that the negative space of the fog took here. Calm and simple.

 

Nice standalone mushroom seen this morning in Woodhaven Swamp (with a tiny guest).

 

The dregs of summer are upon us for sure. Most plants are either withering away, or are big leafy greens (which don't typically macrophoto very well). Caught this lil purple guy along the trail in Capilano Canyon.

 

Wildfire smoke still pretty strong here in Vancouver. This is a viewpoint from Burnaby Mountain, looking north towards Deep Cove and Indian Arm.

Not fake, but focus stacked. This is 29 shots blended, each at 1/13s, f/5.6.

 

A singular dewdrop, found while wandering Maplewood Flats this morning.

 

A tiny cluster of white flowers I found along the powerline near Hyannis Trail.

 

Finally got a shot of this odd door near Cleveland Dam in Capilano Canyon this morning. I'm not sure what it's for... presuming it's an emergency exit or something similar.

 

A quick bug-dense hike on Mt. Seymour this morning to Goldie Lake. Still a surprising amount of snow for late June on the trails.
