Insect, Holding on!

I was supposed to be taking landscape photographs but the sunrise was a bust and the sky was white -- then I happened along this little fellow and loved the way his legs were wrapped around the plant!

Abandoned Barn in the Adirondacks

I have been taking photographs of this Abandoned Barn in the Adirondacks for decades. Everuy time it is different -- it changes all the time: the barn, the field, the lighting, me.

Candles

Fractal Candles. Tripod. Long exposure, post-processed using Fractalius

Lupine and Trees, zoom blur

I zoomed the lens when taking this photograph very early in the morning at Acadia National Park. I especially like the effect on the grass below and the tree on the left.

Oyster catchers

Oyster catchers are very comical and entertaining to watch. Their coloration, their calls and their behaviors make for a wonderful morning. I love the foot up and the small plant in the top photo and the beack open in the second. Gotta get up early for these birds...

Plover

We were asked to judge at the Long Island Photographic Federation. They enticed us with being able to couple the trip with some bird photography! This was taken early in the morning, just waiting by the surf for the birds to venture down. We love all kinds of photographic subjects, but birds are definitely at the top of the list!

Glennie's Best of Show -- Lisa's Osprey

My photograph of this Osprey with a flounder, taken in Connecticut, won Best in Show at the Glennies! I knew that the chicks were hungry and could see the male fishing but when he started flying into the nest with this big round "disc"in his talons it took me a moment to figure out that it was a flounder. Getting it back home and inter the computer I could see that the flounder's mouth is open too!
