I'm starting another big project so I apologize in advance for not keeping up with my contacts....I really do appreciate all the comments/invites and support!
Great Blue Heron
From Audubon : Widespread and familiar (though often called "crane"), the largest heron in North America. Often seen standing silently along inland rivers or lakeshores, or flying high overhead, with slow wingbeats, its head hunched back onto its shoulders. Highly adaptable, it thrives around all kinds of waters from subtropical mangrove swamps to desert rivers to the coastline of southern Alaska. With its variable diet it is able to spend the winter farther north than most herons, even in areas where most waters freeze. A form in southern Florida (called "Great White Heron") is slightly larger and entirely white.
Explore Dec 7/ 07 Mute Swans, landing, early morning light. They actually run across the water as they land which differs from most that ski across the water until they stop. Larger is better www.pbase.com/woody/image/89992210/original.jpg IMG_2186
Although the last weeks offered quite poor conditions for hiking and photography at least one day of the weekends provided a little bit of sunshine. Costedt, Ostwestfalen, Germany
This is my 1960 Fender Precision Bass. It was originally a sunburst finish, but was already pretty beat up when I got it in 1968. So I decided to refinish it...I was 14 at the time. As I look on it now, I'm amazed that I was so bold as to completely dissemble, strip down, and refinish my my most prized possession at the time. But with my father's help, everything turned out fine. Today it serves as a reminder of intrepid youth, a father's love, the thrill of performance, and of days gone by.
Press L to dig the bass....
I guess out of the two landing photos this is my favorite even though no eye contact. I love the shape of it's wings and intensity on making the landing.
Fortunately before moving away, I was able to shoot trio's of BLE tunnel motors. Not only that, I will play the old man card and say I also shot them before they got all ratty looking with the funky AC units on the front. However I never got them in fall colors like this. With only a few hours available on a trip home, the trio wasn't due to go down the hill until much later in the day. It was disappointing but what can you do. Much to my surprise a good friend tipped me off that some home cooking was in order and to get in position! While most of the twenty or so people I had seen were headed north for an all rail, myself and a few others scrambled down to get this wall hanger of a fall colors shot with the trio. Peak color no less!

I purposely left the gannets in the right hand corner in the photo. Every inch of space is at a premium at this nesting site. It takes much precision to find a small space in which to land.

The US Air Force Thunderbirds doing what they do best. My first real airshow (with a good camera) and certainly will not be the last. It was an outstanding performance.

The flight of a dragonfly showcases incredible agility and precision. Dragonflies are highly effective predators, with success rates between 95% to 99% when hunting. This remarkable hunting efficiency is due to their agile flight, excellent vision, and quick reflexes, allowing them to catch prey like mosquitoes, flies, and other small insects.
