Hi Y'all,

After a hiatus of a few years I've decided to enter some pics in the Alligator Farm's photo contest. I have managed to sort through my pics for the season and I knocked the potentials down from 500 to 10. I have to select 5 of these to enter. What do y'all think?

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!"

    Nope, they will usually try to get the best images but they will usually try to get in one gator image and one image of one of the other attractions. I could have thrown in a gator capture but I like these better.

    OK 1-2-4-6-7-8 is the best I can get it down too but remember how good I do in contests so 3-5 9- 10 are more than likely winners :D

    All I know is that second spoony has to be one of them. That is one awesome shot. 2,3,6,8, and 10 would be my votes.

    All are potential winners...IMO you saved the best for last. The Cattle Egret and the lighting that comes with it is a rare combination and gets my pick for top honers.

    I thought I already posted no this but don't see my post. My favorite is 8. I like 2 also but feel it is a bit to close up to capture the nest building activity they are engaged in.

    They sure are. My eldest grandaughter, Jennifer used to spend her Julys with us. When she started out she was trying to get Tigger's autograph at Disney World. During her last stay she was trying to get the phone numbers of the bullpen pitchers at the ball game.
