Well, I went to an old place where I used to do photography to see what it was like and to see if I'd feel safe. Was pleased that it looks like it may work. Unfortunately, I intended to work more with the new lens, however, I confess I got distracted! Geese with goslings, a GBH, and plenty of ducks! Off came the lens and back to my other. I eventually returned to my original purpose, but I admit I'm not wild about them. After I finished, I did some work with my guys, and one did a lovely set on the big flower pot. I can't say the other critters at the creek were as cooperative!

I will share some of the other birds later, but I was fascinated with the divers. My imagination went that one lost something, and the other tried to help and eventually had enough! When I'm at the marina, I can't recall watching any of them dive. It's quite funny. I am not pleased with the loss of detail in the mallard's eye, so I am open to feedback!

Hope, as always, you like!

Synchronized diving is an interesting sport to photograph!
