    Denise, Steve & Bob....thanks for the kind words and appreciating my "obsession" w/the GHO.


    Here's a little family interaction; Jr. gets a preening.

    Denise; purchased an Oriole feeder today....oranges and jelly. I didn't go w/the nectar....I do enough cooking for the hummingbirds. []


    Thanks for looking

    Another great shot, Bill! Keep them coming, I'm starting to look forward to the daily updates on the little one!


    Most of you probably know that I am new to Lightroom and and photoshop. Please let me know what you think of these two shots themselves taken very early this morning and the ppthat I did inLightroom. Not sure if the added vignetting is a plus or minus. I have not had any time yet to read up on using the programs so I'm not real sure if I am applying sharpness, noise reduction and contrast correctly.










    Thanks,


    Denise

    I really like your current posts Denise. The top one is my favourite, I love the vibrancy of the colours, composition and the blurred bachground.


    Can you use Photoshop or Lightroom just to flip the bird around so we can see his chest? They have content aware filters don

    Thanks Neuro.....and you're so right about growing up so fast. So don't waste time here John....go shoot your kids....ah, that didn't come out quite right, but you know what I mean. [:P]


    I took a friend (another photographer) over to see the owlet this morning....and speaking of growing up fast, s/he was Home Alone.


    DDF......Denise's Daily Fix. []

    We took a few pix and then we moved over to the Great Blue Heron rookery to see if any chicks had hatched and get a little more action.

    And then we got a surprise......twin Great Horned owlets.

    LOL! Thanks for the fix! To take a two minute break from my very bad workday ...I opened up my email of the photo and you succeeded to put a smile on my face!


    I saw a GBH on my way to work today so hopefully I will get some shots soon!


    Very nice photos, Bill!!
