It has been ages since I have posted. With family issues and crazy work, I have not fired a shot in a long, long time.
Found an image from earlier last year. Another one of our dismall grey days here in the PNW.:)
Happy New Year to you all!

I love the mood on this one, Bonnie. Good detail in the plumage and great EXP. It may need a bit of CW rotation. Sharp where it needs to be. You have been missed :)

Wow, wonderful image. Love the expression, reflection and white surroundings

I agree with Fabs regarding rotation, and if it was at all possible at this location a lower angle would have been excellent. Love the straight-on look here, this fella does not look the least bit amused...he's looking for a challenge it seems :-) Hope you get more chances soon to go out and do some photography. Have a good 2009!
