    Jeff, that is one good peacock, with reflection shot!

    Everything must have been better in Yosemite, even the photographers....in some cases at least equal. But I have shot those peacocks, so I know how good yours is. (next I am going to have to make a reflection puddle, too cool)

    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!"

    Love that first one Baldy. I wanted a shot of one of these, but chased him around for a few minutes and he was always one step ahead.

    Sorry we didnt really get to meet in yosemite, I kept telling myself I should go introduce myself, but then I would get distracted, and we were never in the same place shooting.

    Maybe on the next one.

    Now, is this peacock just alongside the road somewhere?

    I have never heard of such a thing and will be amazed, but thats what I am getting from your post.

    You probably never will again... Couldn't believe it as I was doing it. Unlike Jeff's beautiful peacock, I was stuck with a mangy bluejay:

    Truth be told, I got a bigger kick out of shooting people trying to look at/photograph Bridal Veil falls.

    those are great I did not get many peolpe shots being with Ed you chase bear :D and if I have a regret it was not talking to everyone ,I am mostly a shy person and there was no time we all were on the go .But that is it you know you are in a good group when the first thing they say to you is [you need a key board ] it was a great trip fantastic time . I think it was Steve who said even with out one keeper I will never forget this trip .I am blessed the raven was more than a keeper and what I learned was priceless thumb.gif
