Headed to the Toledo Zoo in Ohio for the Lights Before Christmas, dropped by the aquarium.

105mm f/2.8
I arrived looking for Kingfishers and this guy was just sitting out on a post really close. After taking some shots he dived in, got this fish and then luckily went straight back up to a nearby branch very close. Sometimes they seem to fly off a long way to eat but I got lucky and was very close.
Using a Canon R7 so an effective focal length of 1,280mm with a big Canon 400mm f2.8 handheld. I wanted to see gow well the 2x teleconverter retained detail.
While grabbing photos of the beautiful Sicilian town of Ragusa, a photographer is also captured for posterity.
Nice start to the day. The surf committee is setting up a viewing platform for the judges for the national grommet competition, which runs for another two days, and us beach walkers are busy enjoying the sunrise.
An empty memory card, a full battery and sunshine sailing.........make for happy snapping :)

Two trees.
Our PROBUS Club Happy Snappers recently undertook a trip into The Rocks for an excursion with the intention being that we were to primarily photograph the architecture.
Once again I became distracted and lost focus when I spotted these two trees across the street from where I was standing and immediately the challenge changed from architecture to botany.
With just the right amount of sunlight filtering through the urban landscape it provided the ideal setting for this image as the trees also acted as an additional filter to the prevent the sunlight reaching the sandstone background.
The Rocks, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
first time seeing one at the RRNC far west pond....haven't seen it there since so i'm thinking it went back across the trail to the other pond
heading back to Snapper Point this arvo, bit of an exploratory mission to check out Timber Beach, Ghosties Beach sea caves & whatever else we can find. National park closes at 6pm, sunset 5pm, not much time in winter given some of the beaches are 6km roundtrip walk. Bring on summer & daylight savings!
Here's a side view of this bruiser Common snapping turtle moving next to the boardwalk. I don't know how large their range is nor if they would tolerate other 'snappers' in their territory. I've seen two others this year at two different places, but have no clue if they are the same.
