New gallery with just WL (wetlands) shots and more kingfisher. I actually got a good shot of him setting on a wire.<br />

Now back to our regularly scheduled program..<br />
<br />
Mallard pair on a muskrat den.<br />
<br />
I was told last summer we had a wetlands in the village. Knowing our village I figured a mud puddle and a couple cat tails. Oh how wrong could I have been?! Not large but it is protected and extremely nice.

<br />

Ornamental grass in evening light.<br />
As a few of you know I'm having some off and on equipment issues, posting may be spotty for a few days.

Driving around looking for what ever, Don says 'deer always come out of that woods about dusk'. As if by magic there they were:-)<br />
These guys were about 200-250 yards out so a real stretch, shutter was 1/80. Luck is a wonderful thing.

 Like this shot, maybe just because I like the houses. Both are the style one would see more in NO, tall and narrow with balconies on both floors, tall narrow windows. Really cool. Why they are built where they are is just nuts.<br />
<br />
Did actually get a shot of a sq in motion that didn't blur, which I like.<br />

For being such good little models I thought a family portrait would be nice:-) Yea more gull shots yeasterday.
  • Dec. 13th<br />
<br />
Not great but I'll take it. Sometimes just getting the EC dialed in right makes my day:-)
  • Dec 11th<br />
<br />
More BIF practice. Don's fav so it gets the call.<br />
<br />
More 'correct shot' no clipped wing tips:-)<br />

Late yesterday went to practice BIF shots, Vandana has her geese, I use gulls:-) Nothing special here except it looks like a much nicer place that is really is.<br />
<br />
Rather liked this, need to work on EC for late day shooting.<br />
