A short bit down AA, his juvenile Little Blue Heron (I believe) was hunting for lunch. I did not stay long and didn't see it catch anything. WM

A few steps down the trail, and I observed a Limpkin in heavy cover, so I stopped to try to get a shot, and as I waited another Limpkin ran by with an apple snail in its mouth, which I thought odd until I saw where it was going with it. I didn't get any shots of the feeding on the snail since...

I didn't make it far down MRR before I turned around and headed for Alligator Alley. My first sharable shots there were of flora, not fauna. I believe that Marilynne has posted shots of this flower lately, or one very similar. I believe that the scientific name for this one is iris...

I started down Marsh Rabbit Run and saw this Glossy, which may have been the one I saw earlier. I took a lot of shots, but these things are really hard to get, especially when they're in the weeds. The contrast was so high, as well. WM

Right behind the Glossy, was this Simpkin, without any of the skittishness. After a bit I went back to try a few shots, and the subject was not shy at all. Little did I know at this point what upcoming surprise I had in store for me. WM

I took a folding tri-legged chair with me on this trip. Even though it was something else to lug around, it was a wonderful thing to have, since it made it easier to get lower for shooting and really reduced my fatigue. I sat in the chair and waited for this Glossy Ibis to work his way to me...

I hope this little trip does't get me banned from the M&G next year. Starting it out, what else but a Great Blue Heron? I was a bit rusty, shooting wise, and was without my tripod since I left my allen key at home and couldn't mount my long lens on the tripod. I lost a lot of my shots to...

A paper wasp on the nest. Under the eaves of the house, and the lighting was tricky. WM

A budding pineapple... WM

Just a bit of shooting around my parent's house this afternoon, after I had my chores done, of course... ;) This anole was one of a very few that didn't run away as I approached. He obviously has an attitude!!

Ok, after going through some of my shots from last year, I'll post a few. Since I'm not taking any other photos these days, I might as well dredge up some old ones...:p

This was taken a while ago, but I just got around to doing something with it for a print competition. WM

My oldest daughter's Jeep finally gave it all up!!! So she got my old, but in great shape, Accord. I moved forward to 2011, and I got one of these: . Mind you, it's used, but there goes another chance at getting a D750. But it's better than having to walk everywhere. :cool: So far, I've...

A brief take on what the difference is in one man's opinion... A man who would have an idea about what the difference between the two is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hA_uVCCD5Is WM

I am trying to be good, and save for a new D750, but I just couldn't pass on an overpriced ($599.95) FX Nikkor AF-S 35mm f/1.8 G marked down to $299.95 (50% off), final price. WM

One of mine. WM

I was browsing adobe.com and ran across the following: https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements.html I had contemplated upgrading to Photoshop Elements, but balked at the price, hoping to find it on sale. With $45 off of the regular price of $99.99, I went ahead and purchased it. The...

Ok, I've looked at the twirls that Jake has shared on his 2016 thread and given it a go. First, the original image, from back in 2014: And then, the manipulated image, rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise: WM
