Well, Whaddyaknow? … An Aussie Pelican … thanks, Richard …

I guess they're prevalent in OZ, too - huh?

This - is the kind of thing - which is pretty prevalent, around here ->


Good catch.
They are not native to Australia.

So you really don’t have any trouble posting an image.

You just can’t find one that meets your challenge.

Nice composition.

It shows the artist as CPS Photo Studio, New Fairfield CT. Is that your studio?

Connecticut has two native species of white and brown pelicans. White ones are considerably rarer. You don't see them because you aren't a bird photographer and I suspect you limit your distance in traveling. That's been evident in your previous posts when I mentioned areas worthy of traveling to and your response was essentially "too far". That's not criticism more as an observation.

We see whites down here mostly during the winter months, but I get a bigger kick out of the browns, my current situation really restricts my travel but that will change in the future, I am looking forward to exploring the many birding opportunities that Florida offers. As it is I spend a lot of time shooting the pelicans, eagles, and herons because they are easy to find close by. I really love the Green Heron but have only seen it in the southern part of the state, have not seen them up in North Central Florida, they may be here but I have not yet come across them.

As far as birding goes, I love it but I will say that it can become quite a money pit.

Love that one, Blurry - where he's still standing, and flapping his wings … very majestic!!!!

See, now - you have the right hardware, for all of this ... BIF, standing, take-offs ... quick, and nimble!

Yup! …

CPS stands for Chris's Photo Studio … kinda redundant, but I like it - as it evokes a color process, too …

oh, er … thanks for the compliment, Bill … almost got the same critter, again - THIS morning …

So you are no better at the computer (you said you have four) than you are at photography (you claim to have more than two dozen cameras).

Pull the other one.

TWO dozen? … You mean - all told, right? … Many more than that …

I have a dozen DSLRs, eleven bridges, 2 View Cameras, a MF, and - I dunno - how many SLRs - say 6-8.

Yes, I have four store-bought PCs - all Lenovo, plus about a dozen home-brews ... but, they're not all interconnected ... they operate as independent systems. ... Pull WHAT other one, Scotty???

"No better" Scotty? … What the hell does THAT mean? … I told you - I use Dial-Up - to get onto the Net. Plus - I have only ONE LINE - which makes things - doubly difficult!! And I don't care for the insinuation!!!
