from the looks of his legs i would say he has been sucking to much sap. have you every been in "kelly's bar"?

It actually flew into the side of my house and stunned itself. If recovered and flew off a few seconds after I snapped the photo. As for Kelly's bar, yes I have been there several times. Good place!

Thanks. I just love taking pictures of him. He is kinda our Miracle baby. He was born with a partially formed heart, and had to be raced to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN. They were able to go in and build a wall between the 2 sides, and put a donor valve in from the heart to the pulmonary artery. He will have to have the valve replaced every so often, but other than that he is nothing but adorable!

I went out and got a few shots of a thunder storm approaching. I didn't get out early enough to get the edge of the clouds moving in.

Darn golf got in the way!

My mother had a valve replaced four different times. I'm sure the surgery has been greatly improved since her operations.

Here is a random photo of typical Eastern North Dakota. Had to throw the golf ones in, because that is the only place there is a change in elevation of the land!

We had a beautiful evening here and my son and daughter in law called and asked me to come take some pictures of them and their dogs. Here are a few highlights.

I was asked to take some senior pictures for a friend. I thought this one turned out well. Any suggestions on post processing?

I got my new crystal ball in the mail from Amazon today and couldn't wait to get out and try taking some photos today. I know they need some work, these were some of the first I have taken. I did learn in a hurry to be careful with them in the sun, they will burn your hand/fingers almost instantly!
