A few more bird pics for Shon.....with a pelican thrown in.....

 

Here is one I took years ago with my new telephoto lense!

 

That is the lense I've always wanted but couldn't afford

 

They have been deleted. I would like to thank the moderators for removing them.

 

This post amazes me. I really do not expect that everyone would understand my point of view when it comes to photography but, a Moderator?

I have had my images stolen and used without permssion or compensation. It is not cool when you are reading a magazine and see one of your photographs being used and claimed by some loser as their own. Seeing them posted somewhere on the internet is really no better.

I am done here.

 

Isn't a NASA picture taken with film bought with our tax dollars public domain?

 

I agree it is in poor taste but I doubt any harm was meant. I suspect is more of a situation of lack of understanding than ill intent. I fight stolen images all the time and typically the offender is unaware they have done any harm.

 

It is impossible to screw up a pic of a Shelby on the track!! Can't be done. Watching all those classic cars hit the first turn almost brought man tears to my eyes.

 

You may be right but I took it as a mockery of my post. We may never know.

Your images are first rate and I thank you for sharing them. I would like to meet up with you sometime in a remote location, cameras on tripods, enjoying a sunrise.

I am heading to Hood River, Oregon this weekend to photograph the orchards in bloom.

Take care

 

Hey, cool shots.

The Brown Pelicans seem to be much more interesting than the white's we have around here. They mostly float around and once in a while you can catch them trying to suck down a carp twice their size.


Not sure how he fit it in but I bet he didn't keep it for long...
