Great Blue Heron

Great blue heron (Ardea herodias) wading in the creek by our house.

Bonus Bird

I caught some nice images of this male downy woodpecker working the tree line. They will make a fine addition to my woodland bird series.

Wedding Season

Congratulations to William and Rebecca and a most beautiful wedding.

In a Galaxy far far Away

With some artistic creative license freedoms and a dab of photo manipulation a galaxy far far away is imagined.

Downy

A nice female Downy today. A good catch considering it rained most of the day.

Red Rocks

A re work of the past. Red Rock Canyon, Nevada. Finished with Aurora 2017.

Sparrow

This sparrow was foraging for food on a concrete sidewalk. The dark shadow gives the sparrow nice separation. Otherwise the subject would completely blend into the background and not produce the 3D effect we desire in our images. Always be aware of your backgrounds and use them to your advantage.
