These images were taken at Brazos Bend State Park near Houston, TX. in August of 2012. I don't have all the information on each photo as it was lost when my computer decided to go south. I was shooting with a Canon 7D set to the lowest f stop on the lens and a shutter speed of 500 or more and suitable ISO for the lighting conditions.

Impressive! I've been debating buying a 7D and you convinced me! Now, if I can just develop your level of skill...

thank you both for the kind words. Roy, you should see how many images that get deleted to keep a few. I'm still working on it and learning every time I go out.
