Caught these Yellow Sulfur Butterflies sharing lunch over Red Clover. Wonder if they were planning any new investments?

Again with a balloon shot.....

There you are again AMD. This time I can see the halo effect stronger than before. That around the balloon and the trees. I wouldn't be using that program to commercial purpose photography.

Some impressive images folks! Well done! Dread Pirate Roberts, your tiger shot is especially amazing!

Went out earlier this month under a blazing sun along our waterfront and saw these two young people having a "moment":

The 70-300, what else?
That lens is on the body almost 99% of the time, I almost never use the kit lens. Would like a longer focus Macro, though.

SONYNUT;
Nice lightning catch.
Here is a backlit Halloween Pennant. It is amazing how much hair insects actually have.

Another great dragonfly shot. I might have to go hunting for them again, but I rarely find sitters that let me get that close very often. Do you feed them dragonfly-nip?

[SONYNUT]

Sometimes they just land on you..lol

[kgosden]

Sonynut there is just something sci-fi scary about that shot.
