day 116 part one

it rained all morning, i stopped at the local duck pond for a few test shots in between showers

well i stood outside the duck pond, it seems to be clearing up again so i will get out again later, one thing my BIF shots have went down hill a bit, think i need to adjust to the weight of this

day 117

a few from today

not the sharpest, it was real windy and cold today, dont know if the wind had an effect moving the lens or i just suck with this at the moment, the latter is my call.

these two had fun bouncing around.
