Re: PESO: Rainy Weekend
I like these. Good captures of the animals, but to me, both have the same fault: their backsides are virtually tangential to the edge of frame. They need some space.

It is a very fine picture 'cause it shows the interaction between the animals, but I think that more takes would have been necessary. Personally I also often miss things such as these, but with time I am slowly but surely getting to spot them. Galia, OTOH, seems to spot them on the fly. Blue Heron On Lakes Edge 2 http://www.flickr.com/photos/jt-johnson/5717664710/in/photostream/ My monitor at work is not profiled, but it is not badly off. Yet, the heron seems pink or light purple to me... Also his head has some clutter that does not add to the view... Radnor Lake Cloud Reflections http://www.flickr.com/photos/jt-johnson/5717090307/in/photostream/ A good shot that tilts ever so slightly to the left, if I'm not mistaken. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jt-johnson/5720767650/in/photostream It's a good photo too, but it seems as if you used a built-in flash or another light source that was very similar to it. The light is rather harsh here. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jt-johnson/5720772054/in/photostream That's the best shot of the five, in my eyes. Real keeper you have here, Jeffery. It just clicks together nicely in all respects. Hope you don't mind my brutal honesty. I mean it in the most constructive way.

Jack, Daniel, David, Paul and Boris RE: PESO: Rainy Weekend
Jack: I used my Pentax K-R, DA L 55-300mm, DA L 18-55mm on the Radnor Lake captures and Pentax K-R with the SMC Pentax 1:1.4/50 + Vivitar Close-Up Lenses for the captures of the Cicadas. Daniel: Thank You... David: Thanks and I will keep the following in mind bad weather makes for good photos. Although when there is rain off and on again today and later this evening a steadier amount not sure what I will capture today. Paul: I agree with you but I noticed for the two shots I took of them together I went more toward the right of them. Will keep a lot of the comments in mind for our next trip to Radnor Lake and this time perhaps we will get up and go really early in the morning. Boris: Thanks for being honest. It was a nice day at the Lake and watching the deer interact but when we came across these two it was rather late in the day and we were for the most part in the deeper part of the woods. The light source was limiting due to the darker part of the woods as we attempted to capture them interacting. Luckily they seem rather use to us humans so are not bothered that we are using these odd machines to take their pictures. There was a bench that we sat down and watched and took pictures of these two. ___ Pictures that I have taken on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jt-johnson/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PESO: Rainy Weekend
Jeffery, I especially like the 2nd shot, the Great Blue Heron. These are difficult to get close to - very skitish. Nice sharp picture. The Locust are not to bad either! Regards, Bob S.
