Non yoyo photography

i don’t know dude taking nice photos of the moon is hard (then again I also don’t have any proper lenses for it).

I don’t shoot very much these days, but I used to do a lot of bmx photography!

I know gear doesn’t make the shot. But I still want to know what you used.

Normally I’d agree with you, but for those shots the Nikon P900 and a tripod are doing most the work. It’s a point and click camera designed with an insane zoom. The sensor in it is the same as their cool pix line, and you can’t change lens on it. However it’s fairly cheap for something that can get you that close to the moon

Y’all have me wanting to share more lol
These are pretty much all from my honeymoon a few weeks ago.
I’ve gotten really into still life and product photography because of yoyos - these are from an antique shop in Manistee, MI:



These ones are all from downtown Traverse City, MI and the Grand Traverse Butterfly House and Bug Zoo:

Oh wow @shatterFX, those are some nice shots! Love the bees!
And butterflies are a super pain in the ### to get good shots of in my experience!

The big blue ones would literally not land, and if you came within 10 feet they would take off - was such a pain to get a picture of them. A lot of the other ones though would stay still for me on a flower or something though lol

I was using a Sony NEX3 back then. Still one of my favorite cameras to this day.

Canon T6i w/ 50mm f/1.8 for most photos (I think these were shot at f/4 or 4.5), 24mm f/2.8 for video and landscapes
Currently saving up to upgrade my camera and I also want to get a gimbal really bad

I also use a T6i with the 50mm. I also have 18mm-55mm f/3.5-5.6 that came with it. The thirst for an upgrade is very really, especially for something mirrorless and full frame.

You ever see Randy Blythe’s Instagram feed? He uses a Leica, and quite a few of his shots have really sold me on them. It helps that he is incredibly talented behind the lens.

Edit, its melted cheese from a pizza on an oven tray. It was standing up like that when I went to wash it.
