The Jan-Feb 2012 issue of Audubon includes selected photos of the latest contest. (not as big or as longterm as the NWF contest) 1700 people submitted. In two different places in the magazine it says that you can see more of their favorite photos (of 1000's) by going to audubonmagazine.org. Well, I have spent about an hour trying to find more of the photos. There are only 8 photos in the main gallery on the home page--- less than in the magazine. But with persistence and luck I found 3 different galleries. Each has 10 or so photos. . I was prepared to write 1) 2) 3) 4) steps to find these, but I cannot reconstruct the pathway. I did copy the link for each one. I hope these links open for you.
There are some spectacular images here. Unfortunately, only the 8 species in the main gallery are identified. There is some tech photo info in the magazine and some description of picture-taking there that is not on the website. For example the loon and fish picture taken at Moose Lake near Ely was taken with a film camera. that's right. the best loon photo I have ever seen. He spent 5 weekends with the loon family. All birds all the time. http://www.audubonmagazine.org/multimedia/it-takes-two http://www.audubonmagazine.org/multimedia/flight-plan http://www.audubonmagazine.org/multimedia/balance Gordon Andersson St Paul ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
