Post Your Best Nature Shots!

[Mr.Le]

Thanks Sinh. I was going for that bit of dreamy look. But you might be right. Everytime I look at those images now I wished I had focused in a bit more. Looking forward to posting on here more often.

I got a chance to captured this when I was at a friend's house. Interesting flower. I have no idea what it's called though. Anybody?

I don't mean to slight anybody else, but Nate, overall, you're the best bird photographer I know of.


Now, granted, I'm sheltered, but, rivals anything i've seen in a magazine.

Thanks for the encouragment Colin, I'm glad you like my work. I'm just lucky to live in an area where there are a few bird sanctuaries, hence more opportunities.


If you want to see great bird photography I recommend you checking out www.birdphotographers.net, I can only dream of some of those guys' work.
