Post Your Best Nature Shots!

CLS-congrats...you had the 1,000th post of this thread
<div style="CLEAR: both"]</div>

Yup, maybe I hurried to make a comment when I saw the counter at 999...;-)


I also decided to celebrate with posting a photo from the weekend. It's current, it's a bird and it's B/W. It's also kind of a portrait,but since I made the 1000th postinthis thread I decided to post it here.


I'm no good at post processing but I'm trying to learn. Last week I picked up a simple process for a softfocus effect that looks quite good on some older portraits. The problem is I've gothooked up on this look and apply it on lots of photos that would probably be better off without it. In this case I added just a little that I think goes well with the thoughtful swan.

Cool shot, Joel! I'm going to try something like that sometime!


Weather here has been awful so not much outdoor shooting going on lately!


Here is a shot from my summer archives...

Nice one Denise!


It has been crappy weather here as well. These were shot in pouring rain last tuesday:








Both are focus-stacked with 6-8 photos if I remeber correctly. I deleted the original shots....stupid me :P
