Hi y'all,

I just taped a segment about my photography for a local TV show on the arts down here that will be shown some time next month.

Here are a few pics to go along with my shameless self promotion.

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!"

    Harry, you do some good stuff but that first one is rediculous. There should be some sort of regulations against that sort of stuff making us normal mortals feel innadequate...eek7.gif

    Thanks Ric. It was kind of funny because I got two similar sets of captures within a week of each other. Both times the anhingas made their catch and came on shore right in front of me. Both times they were so close I could not get a full body capture. They were both backlit also.

    Thanks Dan, Unless you are living in central Florida and subscribe to Bright House cable I doubt that you'll be able to see the show, Its on Bright House channel 47 and will be aired on Thrusday 7/16 at 6:30 PM and Monday the 20th at 8 PM. I'm sure its audience is in the hundreds. :D

    It is the purpose of life that each of us strives to become actually what he is potentially. We should be obsessed with stretching towards that goal through the world we inhabit.

    Great action capture on the first, and the backlit egret shot is fantastic.
