I shot a local band, and the bar was using those horrible LED lights, so the white balance was all over the place. Converting them to black and white looked much better.

I was down at the beach this morning, shooting birds, and saw this guy fishing. Since the birds weren't cooperating, I grabbed a couple shots of him.

I took these a couple weeks ago. They were pretty far away, and I've cropped them more than I would like to.

I'm not a huge landscape guy, but I'm often out at dawn setting up to shoot birds. I got these shots last August. C&C always welcome.

I found a bluebird nest in a dog-poop-pickup-bag dispenser in the park. The chicks (not sure how many... I don't want to get too close) hatched a few days ago, and I've gotten a few shots. These were taken with my 70-200 and 1.4 extender; going to go back with my 400mm so I can shoot from a...
I've been hunting a pair of woodpeckers who've nested in a tree down the street. Due to their nest being quite high off the ground, I either have to shoot straight up at them or move the camera back quite a ways and shoot with my 400mm and 1.4x extender (losing auto-focus) and crop extensively...
I had my camera on the tripod and pre-focused on the bush. The kingbird hopped up out of the underbrush and was in the frame for maybe two seconds.

I was set up at a place where I often see Cardinals, hoping to get some shots. The Cardinals never showed up, but these two flew across the field.

I've been out to this bridge a half dozen times, at least. Got this shot recently. The fog was thicker than I would have liked; was hoping to get the lights going over the hump and off to the horizon (see second photo). Oh, well... it'll still be there next week.

Took a few hundred shots down at the beach yesterday morning. I haven't gone thru them all, but this one came out pretty good.
