This sunday, like almost every sunday, I put my D200 to work and practice the valuable lessons from Ron Reznick's SureShot, Easy learning System.

I hope you like them.

Picture # 1

I got lucky to get this shot. This bird is very shy and when people around, he stay the most of the time under water. Patience was the key to snap him.

The pelicans getting a good rest before they go fishing. It's almost 2pm and much too hot to fly.

Picture # 4

Usually they fly around and making a lot of noise when I'm around. Not this time, they decide to put there long legs to rest.

    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!"
