First air show and I was about two miles away from the action. I only got just a very few keepers out of the bunch. Where I was shooting from, they were on me before I knew they were coming.

This was my first air show and I learned a lot of things that you need to do and several things NOT to do. I think next time my pictures will be a lot better and my keeper rate much higher.

Picking where to shoot an air show successfully is like finding were to get a store to start a business..... LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!!!!! I learned a lot about where to be and what settings to use and not use on my camera this weekend. I will be much more informed for the next time!!!

was talking to one of my pelican friends today and told him he looked too pretty to be a male! After a quick look to verify,
he said, "Nope I'm definitely a Dude".

I have posted several portraits lately of some of my bird friends and was asked yesterday to do my first family portrait so I gave it a try. It is a young family just starting out so I was honored to be chosen for the job!

Thanks Scott! This is a portrait of one of my cats. She was sitting by me when I had some of my pelican portraits up on my computer screen and insisted on me taking one of her.

Several weeks ago Pat "from Ga." contacted me and said he and his wife would be coming through my area today so we met at Denny's and had breakfast together. It was nice meeting them and enjoyed the visit. I'll let you see if you can figure out who is who in the pictures.
