Hi Y'all,

Now that a bunch of stuff has been cleared from my plate for the moment I've been able to start to catch up on my post work. A few images from the Viera Wetlands.

With all of the development going in in the area traffic is always a concern.

How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    The Whistling Duck pic looks like a watercolour. :D Very pretty.
    Do they whistle show tunes?

    Nice shots Harry. Love the Hawk shot, but I'm still hopeful you will post at least one capture on the "More True Love" thread. Gail said you had a few. wings.gif

    I should be able to free a day in that time period. Viera, Melbourne is to the east of Kissimee and about an hours drive from there. PM me when you have a day in mind.

    Thanks Ric but between the exhibit, the family, politics and going to local environmental meetings I'm lucky that I even have time to take pics lately much less process them.

    #3 is my favorite in an overall excellent set. The red-shouldered hawk seems to be thinking, "Lunchtime!" :)

    Nice job.

    I guess that your time away will only make it more enjoyable when you finally get back to it. :D

    From what I hear your weather has not been all that conducive to photography anyway. :cry

    I've got to go with the Duck although the hawk is a very close second.
