Pinned post, about following from multiple addresses

Hi, when I follow someone I usually do this from multiple accounts, with different servers and platforms. This is partially as backup. It’s also because different software has different features. E.g. at the moment of writing I mainly post from my Friendica server, but it doesn’t yet support polls, or account migrations. So I also follow from my Pleroma server, which does notify me someone has migrated.

I also sometimes use platforms that support nomadic identity, that allows my channels on multiple servers to be synced. From software that doesn’t support that, a follow request looks like multiple separate requests from those channels.

yep, Bixby is right. The red spot on the bottom differentiates them from the regular "bonte specht"

There's only a small gap between the trees where the Moon could be seen from my balcony, so I had to set this up quickly. Otherwise I may have had more time to increase the sharpness, maybe with manual focus, maybe with remote control, maybe with faster shutter speeds and higher iso. I did take multiple exposures and some already had out-of-focus leaves smeared over the Moon. It's interesting how quickly heavenly bodies move seen through 400mm. Though I think some lower exposure shots might be better than this one, I still have to check on my pc. This was just cropped on camera and sent to my phone.

So if you tell the Canon EOS R10 auto-focus system to focus on Saturn it's like, ok, I've got it.

Admittedly, it's very vague and it's a tiny crop from the whole photo, it being barely a spec of light, but the photo is taken with a budget camera with a budget lens and it is Saturn and the auto-focus did acquire focus. No telescope involved.

Note that Saturn is visible with the naked eye currently during the night due to being close in its rotation and being opposite the sun. This doesn't happen often. The rings should be visible with any kind of magnification, but I had no luck with my binoculars.

My camera has earrings.

Canon EOS R10 camera seemingly with earrings. Where normally the shoulder/neck carry strap is attached, now two round buttons are attached, unto which the strap can be clicked on. This allows the strap to be easily taken off when it would be in the way.

Further things I learned in photography today: ducks, like humans, are very skittish when they have a black barrel pointed at them. They don't quite panic, but they do swim the other way. Also, dragonflies are really quick.

Posting on Instagram and Pixelfed both failed, in different ways. Instagram flatly refuses, Pixelfed corrupts the photoset. Maybe trying a single picture?

Ok, single picture on Pixelfed worked, can't post the set I wanted. Instagram finally succeeded when I copied the photos to my tablet first. So if you want to see some other pictures of my walkabout, here's the insta link: instagram.com/p/C-GmSPHo8Tn/ , or maybe wait until I start a photo blog or something.

I was photographing with my zoom lens for a while but now Mr Bird wants a word.

A jackdaw (presumably) looking angry (don't they always?) and looking as if it's walking towards me

Testing my new ultra wide angle lens. This is at 10mm (field of view equivalent to 16mm), the view is so much wider than by eye.

I wasn't paying much attention to the exposure, was also getting a bit late in the evening since I had to cycle around the forest to get to another entrance.

I notice that as long as there aren't many shapes for which your brain has much reference (like rectangular buildings) an ultra wide angle lens can compose nice pictures, else the distortion can be obvious and sometimes distracting. Something to keep in mind.
