Neat effect with the half second exposure.

The light was perfect and this goose wanted a portrait, so I couldn't resist. (When the light's right, I'll shoot anything). Lots of details here, because it filled my viewfinder:

I'm not quite sure what kind of hawk this is, but it posed nicely for me. The feet almost look like a falcons.

Nice shot. Pretty sure it is a dark morph Swainson's Hawk

Wow! I'm not disagreeing, but I've never seen one that dark.

Ed, great shot.

Yoshi, great, tight shot of a wave. The camera can show us perspective that we don't see in detail with our eyes.

Beauty pelican shot, DC.

Thanks guys! Probably the last this year until late summer/fall. Osprey's for now, and of course Yosemite this coming week.

M_Six · 04-14-2017, 11:39 PM

Looking forward to your Yosemite shots, Ed.

To a break from work for a drive up Mulholland. It was quite a view.

Nice! I used to teach classes to the Navy a few times a year at Naval Base Ventura County, and would bring my motorcycle down with me. I loved riding in that area.

A quick Iphone snap of my trusty work companion Carl.

Me Too! Taking an all Fuji kit for myself including the new X-T2. I also just picked up the 10-24MM (15-36mm equiv.) wide angle zoom for it with a full array of ND and CP filters.

From 2011 and my 40D

One evening around midnight, I found this ready to mate male Cross Orbweaver hovering in a lemon tree in my backyard.
