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!"

    Nice job Harry. Especially like that Great Blue Egret. Working late?

    I must say..those dark black lenses are scary. I'll have nightmares if I see any more of those big ole things.

    Hi Harry,
    Looks like you had a good time. I like the hawk and the gator.thumb.gif

    Actually I like the egrets too, and I like the repitition in that last one of the ibis. You always do a bang up job. thumb.gif

    Thank you Mike. However, please don't ever associate the accursed "W" word with me again. Harry don't do that no more.

    I can understand your feelings about those long black lenses. It must be very intimidating for a poor ole Canon shooter. :D

    Great series Harry. I like the sunrise shot. The reddish egret and the night heron are also lovely.

    I did not see the hawk at Orlando - very nice indeed.thumb.gif

    Thanks PF. That hawk shot was kind of funny. My knee was killing me so I sat on one of the benches while the rest of my group went off looking for ospreys. While I was sitting on the bench the hawk flew right into the tree in front of me.

    It was a real blast Dee. We had shooters come in from all over. We even had one shooter from Britsh Columbia.

    Gators are real pussycats.:D

    Thanks Vandana. Those ibisis were juveniles, still too young for any serious fooling around. :D

    Great shots Harry.
    Your bird shots are always great, but the opening landscape really stands out.
