This topic serves as a place for forum members to share recent work with our Sony Alpha full frame cameras. It's OK for a7x and a9 camera owners to dazzle us with images made with other cameras, but the idea is to allow owners with similar cameras to compare notes, chops, and sensibilities.

Using Threaded View helps to keep each person's contribution and responses linked in a tree-like structure so replies/discussions are easier to follow.

To begin:

1. Add your contribution for the week by responding to this, the first message in this topic.

2. Change the Subject of your message, then embed your image into the reply with whatever you’d like to say about it. (Embedding makes it easier to participate, easier than a link to an image located outside the forum - but links aren’t a great offense).

If you especially want C&C (criticism/critique) or technique feedback, say so. It’s assumed one does want such feedback, but direct requests may garner a more studied analysis/response. If you don't want such feedback, say so, and others will respect your wishes.

If you feel you've been ignored, select your post, reply to it with a brief note to the effect of "Can I get some feedback?". Not getting feedback on a post isn't uncommon, so don't feel offended - no one is charged to ensure all posts get attention (we're not organized enough for that). If you want particular feedback (composition, exposure choice, etc.), saying so can be helpful for the potential respondents as to what your needs may be.

It is courteous and advisable that, should you post images for feedback, you also make comment on at least one other contribution. Respectful acknowledgment of everyone is the goal, and it’s requested that all participants assume some responsibility to that end.

Sometimes people illustrate suggestions by re-editing images that you post here and reposting them in this thread. If you don't want that done, please say so. Otherwise, we'll all assume that's OK with you. Of course, it is never OK for anyone to take your images, edited or not, and repost them elsewhere.

As usual, some excellent shots in this thread already!

Here's my contribution from the UK, surprisingly not Holland. All taken 19/04/2025.

I timed the tulips perfectly, and was lucky with the weather too, not bad considering I booked the tickets in February ;)

Getting used to full frame still and had the chance to do some bird shooting during easter at a family's place.

Larry Curly And Moe. Nice company for trying some birding.

Another close up crop, Using the sigma in bright light makes me appreciate it a lot more.

Some great shots of wildlife will never see in my neck of the woods. The creek-jumping coyote impressed me the most.
 
Thank you, Joachim! My personal favorite was the bald eagle. I was sitting outside on the deck of my hotel room overing looking the banks of the Yellowstone River. This bald eagle came flying over the Yellowstone River with a blackbird closely harassing it. It flew by and I thought that it was gone for good, when it circled back and came by again going the opposite direction. After it passed me the second time, I thought for sure that it was gone for good again, when it circled back and came by again going in its original direction. Well, it circled around me about 7 times before I finally stepped into my hotel room and grabbed my 200-600 mm lens. Luckily for me, it circled about three more times, and I was able to grab some decent shots of it. Best regards, Dean
 
The vegetation is still mostly in shades of gray in my part of the world. Some green and a few small wild flowers can be seen here and there. Spring is still on the cool and windy side.

Here are just a few modes snaps .
