A collection of images of the sky over Amelia Island, Florida. My son, Tim, captured the last photo on his phone (I think it’s the best). Do you have a favorite? Let me know. Thanks.

A bald eagle in its nest on Crane Island, Florida, along the banks of the Amelia River. Camera/Lens: Canon EOS R with Canon EF 300mm f/4L IS USM.

The eagle keeps a watchful eye on me and its favorite fishing grounds along the river. It is their nesting season currently and typically runs through May.

Happy SUNday! – Kodak EasyShare Max Z990

Chris and Carol Leave a comment

The Kodak EasyShare Max Z990 was released in 2011 with a 12 MP BSI CMOS sensor. It’s considered a bridge camera, a compact digital with some features and styling of a larger DSLR. It has a 30x optical image stabilized lens made in Germany. I love the bold, bright, and contrasty photos it captures.

Fernandina Beach lifeguard Gavin is standing watch over the beaches of Amelia Island, Florida.
Busy beach.
My three ‘test’ palms.
More expansive view – note the three ‘test’ palms.
Wide angle of about 28mm.
Telephoto at around 800mm.
HDR setting.
Kodak film simulation of ‘Vivid’ is closely associated with Kodacolor film. Sharp and contrasty.
This is a lifeguard stand shot with the camera’s ‘HDR’ setting. Notice how the yellow flag shows movement since HDR takes three images in succession and then combines them into one image.

The Kodak EasyShare Max Z990 is a worthy digital camera from the early 2010s. At 12 MP, it has plenty of resolution for most applications, and its superzoom lens (28-840mm) blows away most other cameras in its class. By the way, all these images are straight from the camera – no post-processing. JPEGs can be sharp and colorful.

Kodak No. 3-A Folding Brownie Camera.

Model A made from 1909 to 1915. This is the first model with the F.P.K. Automatic shutter and Bausch & Lomb Optical Company lens. It originally used 124 roll film, but the proper adapter can shoot 120 films. This camera is from the collection of well-known New Mexico photographer and writer Ken Cobean (Hial Kenyon Cobean, Jr.)
