Thanks for looking!

 

Fell in love with # 9 :heart:

 

thanks Electric and LaFoto..

I am not really set up yet for flash use, I do have a couple here, and there is an built in flash with the camera, but I just haven't messed with them too much.

 

Wow, you sure know how to make the best of the low lighting conditions! #4 (the glare!), 8 (the lighting) and 9 (the cuteness factor) are my faves. I hope you get shots and post 'em every day!

 

Those little ducks are so cute! How absolutely precious!

 

Wow Raymond. They are all great shot, but that last one is awsome! :shock:

 

thamks everyone!

 

Once again you make me green with envy!!

 

Brilliant photography Sir Raymond.

 

love the heron shots and the baby geese!!

 

awesome series ray, good job working with what limited light there was... i really enjoyed the DOF in #1-#5, herons are good as always and those goslings (?) are just adorable... :thumbup:
