Sunrise at Jupiter, Florida

June 8, 2013 PhotographyWildlife Photography  No comments

Made another trip over to the east coast of Florida to shoot sunrise at Coral Cove Park in Jupiter, Florida.  That place NEVER lets me down, it’s so beautiful there!  Here’s a few shots.  I used the Canon 7D, Canon 10-22mm and a ten stop neutral density filter.

iphone wildlife photos

I was on facebook the other day and had noticed an advertisement for a weatherproof housing you put your iphone in and set up near your bird feeder or bird bath to remotely take photos.  I thought, I bet I can do this cheap!

I went through the app store, reading as many reviews as I could for all of the various apps.  I figured out that the best option for me…if I was going to set the iphone up on a tripod near a bird feeder and use the ipad to trigger the camera, that I needed a bluetooth app.

So, I went with this one HERE (this is a link to the free app, I do believe the one I have is a paid app, so there might be another version).

We have wifi but once you’re outside of the house it really doesn’t work, so I wanted the bluetooth app so I could set up the iphone farther out by my bird...

Around The House

Do you have an ipad?  If you do, be sure to download the free app ‘Flipboard‘.  I have several magazines I’ve curated on there, if you’d like to check them out.  I have a Wildlife And Nature flipboard where I ‘flip’ all of the awesome animal and landscape photos I find online.  Find it HERE.

I have several magazines on flipboard but one other I know you’ll like is my Photography Tips and Tutorials magazine HERE.

Don’t forget you can also download your free flickr cover photo template to spruce up your new flickr page HERE

…and ALL of my free downloads can be found HERE.

I haven’t gotten out to shoot much lately (but hoping to remedy that this weekend)…but I have been shooting here and there around my house...

Owls And Sunset

I had fun this past Monday shooting with my friend, John Elias.  We went around and visited quite a few burrows that housed Burrowing Owls and their chicks.  Then we hit up Boca Grande for sunset and I brought along a couple of ‘props’.  A conch shell and a starfish.
