Had a rough photo week :wxwax
1st I accidently deleted the best Turkey Vulture shot I've gotten to date :wxwax, believe me it was cherry!!

Then today I blew a chance at catching an Osprey dive for fish and to top it off I blew the exposures on the flight shots (to much backlight) :wxwax :wxwax.

I felt like this bug all week :lol4

    Sounds like you're a little blue Ben. Do feel better soon. thumb.gif It's tough getting old and forgetful. I'm sure that turkey vulture had a wonderful blue sky as a background. :D

    Nice pelican shot. Looks like you didn't forget to compensate for them white birds..and nailed the exposure. Nice warm 'n' fuzzy feel to that shot. (color/tone).

    Sure it was. I deleted a shot of a bald eagle doing the macarena but you don't hear me crying about it. 15524803-Ti.gif

    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!"

    Hey Ben........you and Jeff both seem to be a little green lately. Must be a little envy...and the fact you DON'T own a Canon. I guess not having that extra money you would have saved from purchasing a Canon ..rather than that Nikon...might also account for this. It seems then...you'd be greenless or is that pennyless?? rolleyes1.gif


    We've got some real nice blue skies today......maybe I'll get you some blues back in your diet...so you feel betta'

    At least you make all of us here that have done the same thing feel a little better about it, that we're not the only ones that have deleted a precious file or blown a great shot. The reflection is very nice also.
