Florida has some great weather for a change, yeah! But we need rain!!!
Of course, with all the fires and lakes drying out, i have a hard time finding my guys where i usually go. So yesterday i made another trip with dogs hoping to find anything resembling a bird.

Here are just few i could find.



Couple of shots of whities.

    I wish I could give you all in Florida some rain. But I really can't complain. My area of North Texas is coming out of a three year drought, perhaps longer. Anyhow, very nice whities. You have really improved in the relatively short time you have been here. You must have been one of those "gifted" students. thumb.gifwink

    Well you sure didn't come up empty! A nice series. Sometimes it's tough to get enough exposure compensation on those white birds in the sun (at least it is for me!) Love the comp on that second shot. thumb.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!"

    Thank you Stephen :D I've never been a good student, i learn as i go and read, read, read. I've only been taking on photography since i bought my first DSLR as a X-mas present. But it is an addicting hobby, i'll say! Appreciate your comments! thumb.gif
