@DarkPrince - These are fantastic!

Question about the last one (golfer on follow-through) - is that an HDR image?  It has that "look" to it, but it's an action shot...so I don't think it could be.

I'm going to bring my equipment to the TST Ohio outing this weekend - I hope to try my hand at some golf course shots.  We are playing Friday evening, so I might have some good dusk light to play with.

It was just a regular shot with a Fujifilm X100 mirrorless camera with basic Adobe Lightroom adjustments and a virtual Graduated Neutral Density filter to darken the sky but keep the foreground lit. Here's the raw photo straight out of camera:



A few more from the same camera after editing a bit:



There's something about the color rendition with this camera and it's Lens/Sensor combination that gives me so much more to work with and make POP than my full DSLR (I shoot with two Pentax K-5/K-5II cameras for most of my work).

Yeah - I've heard fantastic things about "Fuji color" - never owned one myself.  I almost purchased an X-100 when it first came out, but I think the fixed focal length would be too restrictive for me.  I do a lot of super-wide shooting...

Great stuff.

We're not going to have much time while playing the one-club scramble to take a lot of photos. They'd have to be the awfully quick-n-dirty type.

Yeah, I wouldn't hold anything up; I always plan on "quick and dirty".

Although if I recall correctly, the rules for the scramble are that you get three balls and after that you're out...so I will be able to take my time to get some nice photos after my first three swings. ;-)

We only had that rule at Whispering Woods. :) Did you get any photos?

Nope...nothing.  You were right - we were flying through those 9 holes.  I thought about taking a couple shots after we finished, but I got distracted by the $12 bucket of craft beers.

Took this one tonight.  I think it's my favorite so far.  I'd love to say I know what I'm doing but it was all luck.  The only adjustments were a graduated filter and some noise reduction in Lightroom.

I'm going to keep posting pictures because I'm having a lot of fun climbing all over the area...

First time I've seen this forum, so I thought I'd add a photo or two for grins. 

The first one is "Two Lane Blacktop", shot north of Cody Wyoming last summer.  It's a 6 image stitched panorama.:

Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.  Photo taken from helicopter at the end of the dry season when the falls was at its lowest flow.  This only shows about 2/3 of its total width.

This one was taken more than 30 years ago (transparency scanned into digital) when I still had my 1980 Toyota 4x4.  It's somewhere high up in the Colorado Rockies.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By GolfLug ·

      No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death.

      Spark League at Severna Park Golf

      By Paloma ·

      Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area?

      Revisiting My First Golf Instructor

      By StuM ·

      I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.

      Day 552, May 7, 2024 Played nine holes with @NatalieB with irons only from her tees. Didn't really finish out any holes, just hit the irons and approaches and some chips.
