The Pup and I went back to Magnolia today. Not my best day of shooting. There were a few OK images.
These turtles were either very brave, or very stupid. I didn't count on the way back to see if they all survived.
This was a solid photo, IMO, although nothing to alert the press about.
Lots of these little warblers around, although they were very small, so I had to try and get as close as possible. Still had to crop a good bit, and it was in deep shade, so I had a high ISO. Topaz to the rescue.
Spent a lot of time looking through the viewfinder, and waiting for this hawk to make his move from his perch in a tree. As soon as I got distracted by an egret nearby, he swooped down and grabbed a crawdad. This was the only one I managed to get that was in focus and showed his face. Oh well, maybe next time.
The Pup wanted a picture of these very small flowers, but didn't want to swap lenses. I had my 105 macro mounted, so I took a few. Looked better after transferring to the computer than I thought it would.
