That time agaon folks. Had a pretty good week here and if you have some pics that you didn't post, feel free. If you have whtever feel free, after all it is FREE SUNDAY.
Speaking of FREE, Mon-Wed will be free...and three days of free can get dull fast so I'll start off a Challenge but won't be around much.
The Challenge will be POV-Weirded Out. What I 'd like is three different shots of the same subject, the first one straight out of the box and remaining two pp'd asyou please
Unzoomed fireworks
Giant Marshwmallows,played with light
And another blast
Looks like you had fun shooting fireworks! The second shot looks like a row of teeth...hee, hee!

Here's one I took about 5am this morning.
Two things about this series.
1. Please help ID the birds, if you can. I've sent a query to a provincial group which has a checklist, but no pictures. No reply over the weekend.
They are ducks for sure. The last photo has a duck facing the camera with a duck bill as clear as can be.
2. Remember what happened in Lake Erie and the public water supply in Toledo? Well, this pond has gotten some what anoxic, lacking in oxygen, for the past 3 summers. I tend to think too much fertilizer in the adjacent fields.

These birds are bigger than osprey and smaller than Canada Geese. Their tail and wing feathers have white, that is different from 'black ducks' in google images

Have you looked at a website like
http://www.ducks.org/hunting/waterfowl-idThat might help you identify them. You can see their characteristics like dabbling or diving. It might be two generations, making it a little more difficult to identify.
Here is a fun subject - SNAKE
This was my first time taking pictures of fireworks using aperture priority. Enjoy!

Quite true there could be a bunch of juvenile birds with somewhat different markings.
But no, I did not find any birds at that site with the markings of that flock.
Thanks.
:-D
