Busy!

WOW!

It has been more than a month since I last posted....sorry!

 Been really busy with a death in the family, new camera gear and many other things. I'm back now and have many images. It's that time of year for ice images. Ice details and other winter subjects. So starting with ice shapes I shot on a small stream. It was 23 degrees when I went down to the river, but wish it would have been colder. I will be going back to get many more shots of my favorite winter time subject.

You can see the on location shoot here...

The little squirrel

Now that I have my new camera I have been busy taking photos again...

Really glad I upgraded to a much better camera. This little Red Squirrel was so much fun to photograph. All day it would run back in forth carrying one seed at a time and stashing it in the wood pile. I watched it take the same path over and over. So I set up my bean bag on the windows edge and took out the screen. I used my 300mm to get the shots I wanted. I waited and waited...every few minutes this squirrel would stop and look around and I would fire off a few frames. Still waiting for a good snowfall, but so far all we have is a dusting on the ground.
