Really loving all these examples from everyone. My former career was in herpetology, so I especially enjoyed the toads sequence. The pocket is certainly a little powerhouse.

Thanks for sharing. That's always the hardest obstacle to overcome-- the exhaustion. But it's almost always worth it, isn't it?

Thanks, Tim. I shot most of these with Canon and Sigma EF lenses. My telephoto lens has been a Canon 70-200 L MK2, and a Metabones speedbooster to take advantage of the IS. Recently, I've been using more all-manual MFT glass on the pockets and I absolutely love shedding all that weight. I'm giving up IS, but I'm also rigging up our pockets more fully so I'm not missing the Canon's stabilization. I also got to see a friend's Olympus M.Zuiko Digital 12mm-100mm F/4.0, and was impressed by its build and versatility. For wildlife, the f/4.0 speed also gives you a little more room to nail focus, and it's a stabilized lens.

Hey Andrea, thank you very much. I am not a professional colorist so I have much to learn, but my process usually includes a balance node + transform node (usually BMD's extended video LUT) + secondaries (usually HSL, saturation and other color adjustments) + vignette or power windows. Sometimes I'll use a creative LUT like FilmConvert or other film emulation LUTs near the end of the chain, but usually not at 100% gain (key output), usually in that order.
