Posted on January 9, 2018
It is fun to watch and photograph American White Pelicans. Especially in groups. They seem almost comical the way they interact with each other. It is interesting to see how sometimes they are actually graceful and at other times just klutzy. But I guess I am the same way. Also they are a large subject, easier to photograph. You just have to watch so you do not overexpose the whites and keep the feather detail.
Peek a boo, I can still see you

Pelican Flying Through Sunset – Captiva Island
Posted on December 30, 2017
I have not posted any blogs for a while. We were busy with downsizing studio space at work, moving the computer room, moving printers, network cables, etc. Mostly getting everything up and runnings again. Also I did not do much personal photography for a while. In November we had the opportunity to go to Sanibel & Captiva Islands in Florida. It was fun to shoot for fun again. One of my favorite places to photograph birds and sunsets. The featured image was shot with a 300mm f/4 lens with a 1.4X Teleconverter, @ f/8 1/3200 sec.
