Nature Walk

We (Convivial) went on a nature walk last weekend. I brought my camera. The set is here.

I am running out of ways to praise that eye that you have. I particularly love that first shot - the dog's eagerness, and his ears, with the feet in the background just combine to make one of those perfect visual moments. Nicely caught :)

Thank you. I'm just glad that people like my photos. It seems, these days, that rants provoke more discussion. :)

Oh, nice shots of the leopard frogs! And you got the warblers. I have looked them up and believe them to, indeed, be yellow-rumped warblers. The description of their behavior -- flooding woods in the late fall, sallying out over water for insects, and in general being very active -- helps confirm it.

I also really love how you captured the light in several of these.

Ctein says I'm cheating on the frogs, 'cause I'm pushing the available light with flash. :)

I'm glad you like them.

B-b-but -- I thought that was what flash was for.

So did I!

(I suspect his statement was a reaction to my statement that doing Photoshop magic after you take the picture was cheating. :)

I particularly like the hornet's nest and the leopard frog. And, yes, your eye.
