Raising flag on Iwo Jima

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raising_the_Flag_on_Iwo_Jima#/media/File:WW2_Iwo_Jima_flag_raising.jpg
1945, the United States invaded Iwo Jima as part of its island-hopping strategy to defeat Japan. The Japanese fought most of the battle from underground bunkers and pillboxes. It was common for Marines to knock out one pillbox using grenades or a flamethrower, only to come under renewed fire from it a few minutes later, after more Japanese infantry slipped into the pillbox using a tunnel.
“Flags of our fathers” covers this very well.

Bob Fishel – Tips for a first showing, including how to choose which photos to feature (we're mostly travel photographers) and what methods to print on for sale (currently doing mostly metal and wood prints for our home from ProDPI, haven't printed anything for public consumption / sale)
Nerazzuro Zelkanovic – tamron or sigma on the 24-70 new lineup?
Isaac Goff – Tripod/No tripod? Since I began shooting the Sony A7R2, I find in most situations with a fast to average shutter speed, handheld works just fine and gives sharp images. Do you want to qualify the “always use a tripod” rule?
Nick Jones – How do I know which filter to choose for what situation? Recently I shot the bean and it was low light getting toward sunset. A guy next to me used a 6 stop ND even though it was low light and his photos looked WAY better than mine. How do I know when to use a filter?

July 10, 2017 Photographic Dynamic Range (Photo Taco)
Jeff Harmon talks with Bill Claff about his Photographic Dynamic Range testing and math that can be seen on his photonstophotos.net website. Jeff goes over the following questions with Bill:
1) Who is Bill Claff and what do you do with photography?

2) What is the story or background of your excellent photonstophotos.net website? Why did you create it?

3)You have a lot of math and explanation behind your Photography Dynamic Range (PDR) number, can you explain that to someone who may not have as much background in math? Maybe a PDR for dummies kind of guide?

4)Is there a way to compare PDR to the Landscape score that DxOMark publishes from their testing?

5) I am a Canon shooter, currently shooting the Canon 7D2, and when I compare it to some others that are supposed to have significantly better dynamic range (7D2 11.8EV, Canon 80D 13.2EV, 5D4 13.6EV, Nikon D810 14.8EV) the difference in the PDR doesn't seem nearly as significant as the EV rating from DxO. Why is that? How should we be looking at differences in PDR numbers on your site?

Article of the Week: 5 Habits to get you to the next level of landscape photography

Shoot one single lens

Jim – After talking to Michael Frye a year ago on this show, I had in my mind to shoot long-lens landscapes. I then went to Zion and got some of my favorite landscapes of all time with a long lens. Planning to use this technique helped me shake up my norm.

Track the weather every day for a month

Jim – I’ve actually been doing this. Testing my apps against what is actually happening and sharpening my ability to plan for being in the right spot.

RadarScope, Photo Pills

Visit one spot repeatedly

Jim – This is something I really need to work on. I’m too excited to go to the next spot and don’t re-visit old locations enough.
