					<description><![CDATA[We’ll open today’s Photography News with a little puzzle. While going through photographs from one of my now rather historic expeditions, I came across a pair of almost identical images. Apart from showing the same landscape, they also share one technical characteristic—they were taken with the same wide-angle lens. However, I took one of them with a Nikon D500 APS-C camera and the other with a full-frame Nikon D810.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[These days, when lenses come with lightning-fast autofocus, powerful image stabilization, aperture control from the camera body, transmission of aperture and focal-length information to the EXIF data, and a whole host of other clever features, using fully manual lenses might seem like pointless masochism. Modern cameras, however, offer a number of features that make fully-manual lenses worth considering as a perfectly sensible alternative. In this article, I’ll introduce you to some tips and tricks for shooting with these lenses while keeping your sanity intact.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[When I first visited the Galapagos, the Lava Gull (Leucophaeus fuliginosus) was one of my target bird species. And, as these things usually go, once you start looking for something, you can’t find it. When I returned to the Galápagos this year, I let the gulls slip a bit from my focus and concentrated more on Darwin’s finches.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[For the longest time, Nikon has been the king of lightweight and relatively affordable supertelephoto primes. They were the only game in town at one point with the 500mm f/5.6 PF. True, Canon already had the optically-excellent Canon 400mm f/4 DO II lens, but that lens wasn&#8217;t particularly affordable at about twice the price of the 500mm f/5.6PF.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s just before five in the afternoon, and I&#8217;m hiking up a narrow trail toward the summit of one of the many hills surrounding Ecuadorian Mindo. Only moments ago, a light rain was falling from the sky, but now soft plumes of mist are rising from the canopy of the surrounding cloud forest, and it looks like the last hours of the day will offer perfect flying conditions.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Here's a story that may sound familiar to Lightroom users: You're editing a difficult photo, and the sliders, gradients, and brushes are adding up. Even if the photo is looking better, a wall is looming ahead - specifically, new edits are interacting poorly with your prior edits, and there's no easy way to fix it.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Gentle tendrils of vines surround the trunks of trees, trunks covered by mosses and lichens and ants. Sunlight filters weakly through the foliage and struggles to reach the forest floor. Once in a while, the stillness is permeated by the raucous and jarring calls of chachalacas and toucans.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, while going through photographs for an upcoming article, I came across this portrait of a European green frog and had to laugh. You see, wildlife photography can often be a rather lonely pursuit. You sit in a hide for hours on end, or wander through the wilderness without encountering a living soul. Then you come home and your spouse or kids ask, “How was it out there? Show us a photo of you taking pictures.” I try to appease them and occasionally snap a selfie, usually on my phone—you know how it goes. But usually, the animal I was photographing is missing from the picture.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Have you ever seen the cute, cat-sized animal known as coatis or coatimundis? Although the range of these raccoon-like mammals extends as far north as Arizona, their primary habitat is Central and South America. The origin of their name can be traced to the Brazilian part of the Amazon, specifically the vocabulary of the Tupi Indian tribe. Kua means “belt” in their language, and ti means “nose” &#8211; and the coatis sure have an interesting nose. Furthermore, the word mundi, meaning “lonely,” reflects the solitary nature of adult males, who typically keep their distance from the otherwise social females and their young.]]></description>
