It\u2019s been a minute since I have been able to sit down and post anything on the blog. Oh, who am I kidding? I\u2019ve been too fat and lazy to take the time to write<\/span> <span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">anything. That needs to change!&nbsp; The two main purposes of having the blog in Korea was to give me an outlet to share my photography, work on my writing and editing skills, to have an excuse to get out of the house, and in some way to promote Korea). Over the past several years, while I have gotten out, it isn\u2019t often enough! So let\u2019s change that in the waning months of 2026 and into 2027!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&nbsp; What could possibly be a better place to start than with BATS?! It was once again off to the Lubee Bat Conservancy. Unlike my previous trip, while I had everything ready to go I did not start loading the car until 0800 the morning of the trip. This did not cause any issues though and I was on the road exactly when I had planned. The only drawback was that I forgot several important items that made my modify my menu. The drive to Gainesville is always a slog, and this time proved no exception! 5 hours is a long time to drive continuously! I did stop halfway through at one of Florida\u2019s great rest areas for a quick bite! It has been raining almost continuously for the past month and about 90 minutes out of Gainesville the sky just decided to open up! Visibility went to zero! If it wasn\u2019t for the adaptive cruise control, I would have been panicking a little bit! I had a chance to pull off to a rest area but weighing the odds, I decided it was safer to stay on the interstate!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&nbsp; This year I stayed in a 1-bedroom cabin at Mike Roess Gold Head Branch State Park in Clay County. I chose the cabin for several reasons. First, it was still too hot and humid to sleep in a tent, and lastly. Remember all that rain I had been telling you about? I am glad I did! It was a well-maintained historic wood cabin built by the Civilian Conservation Corps. In the 1930s and included this stone fireplace! While it was still raining Friday night, I thought about starting a fire here, but running the AC with a fire going seemed a bit daft!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Exterior-fog-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6754\" src=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Exterior-fog-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Exterior-fog-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Exterior-fog-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Exterior-fog-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Exterior-fog-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Exterior-fog-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-Fireplace-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6753\" src=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-Fireplace-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-Fireplace-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-Fireplace-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-Fireplace-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-Fireplace-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-Fireplace-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-bedroom-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6752\" src=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-bedroom-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-bedroom-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-bedroom-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-bedroom-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-bedroom-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Photo-Day-Cabin-bedroom-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&nbsp; I know I know, you thought you were here to talk about bats, photography, or both?! So, I guess we should pivot and get into it! The previous year we mostly played with the Canon 70 \u2013 200mm f4L and my trust Holga lens. This year I decided to utilize a piece of gear that rarely has a chance to come out of my camera bag! The 150 \u2013 600mm Tameron super telephoto!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">The last time I got a chance to use this lens was at a Blue Angels training performance.

Here is one of Lubee\u2019s Malayan Flying Foxes. Two things amaze me with this lens, one os the color reproduction, the reds and oranges just pop with this lens, and there appears to be little or no color fringing, something that is always a worry cheaper lenses (Like the Rhokinon\/Samyang 85mm). The other thing this lens is very good at is bokeh rendering, which again surprises me! At 600mm your depth of focus is RAZOR thin. Even with a narrow aperture of 6.3 (It\u2019s widest at 600mm), you have a relatively narrow focal plane, though instead of falling off into a glaring jumbled mess. It renders the out of focus portion of the picture in a beautiful subtle cream.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6740\" src=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Boke-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6738\" src=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Boke-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Boke-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Boke-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Boke-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Boke-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Boke-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Boke-2048x2048.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Tounge-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6739\" src=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Tounge-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Tounge-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Tounge-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Tounge-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Tounge-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Malayan-Flying-Fox-Melon-Tounge-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>Here is another Malayan Flying fox, this time going after a fruit Kabob.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Learning to crop will definitely be in your future, as at 600mm it is very easy to end up with things in your photo\u2019s that you were not intending.

Where you really find yourself here with some deep area of shadows that you can not do anything about. The only thing I could think to mitigate this is using small reflectors, you would just need to bring an assistant because you are not going to be able to shoot with the Tamron one handed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-3-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6733\" src=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-3-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-3-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-3-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-3-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-3-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-3-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-3-2048x2048.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">However, when you get the lightening right, the photos on this lens just pop!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-4-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6734\" src=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-4-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-4-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-4-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-4-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-4-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-4-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.catracing.org\/hendrb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Lubee-Golden-mantel-4-2048x2048.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Again the depth of focus with this lens is mind bending.
