Rare pierces Posted April 23 #1 Share Posted April 23 Pictures taken between Monday, April 22 and Sunday, April 28. Nearly a third of the year gone already. You can't take pictures of anything that happened last week, so take some from this week and share them!. Rules: See above That's it. This isn't a contest. All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising). Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize. The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays. Post one. Post many. Up to you. Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

Rare pierces Posted April 29 Author #2 Share Posted April 29 Saturday was a skating day. Jackie had her first major competition of the year and got herself another page in this year's Picture-A-Week book. It seems like just four years ago (it was) that she was tottering across the ice and spending considerable time on her butt. She fell a lot at first but always got up and tried again and again. He first competitions were “Awww...” moments and terribly cute. The “Awww...” days gradually went away as she progressed, and the last year has had a lot of "Wow..." moments. Competing against girls twice her age is part of the deal when you start early and get good, but that hasn’t fazed her at all. She pulled off a Third and a First and earned every point with a grace that seems more effortless every day. Cutting Edge Dave 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zackiedawg Posted May 2 #3 Share Posted May 2 Sorry - been away again for a bit - just keep getting busy or distracted and don't get the time to pop in here! Did the typical weekend wildlife shooting on Saturday, so here are a few of the sightings: As you'll see, it's the time of hatchlings and chicks here in S Florida: Spotted sandpiper: Glossy ibis chick, still in the nest but growing larger: Green heron chick, old enough to wander out of the nest, but not ready to fly yet: Grey-headed swamphen, doing some Mr. Universe poses and showing off its colors: Anhinga in a tree, in the classic drying-off pose: Eastern screech owl, standing guard in a high palm tree where he can watch the nesting hole in a nearby tree where his mate is ready to lay eggs: Very close up with a red-winged blackbird chick, waiting for mom to return with a nice mouthful of insects: Red-shouldered hawk watching the life of the wetlands pass by, just taking a break: 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
