I believe this is a female Redwing Blackbird since there was a male close by. Anyone care to post a positive ID?

Critiques are always welcome.


Nice set of pictures, do not know the bird.

This is the second installment of my session with my favorite hawk. Since there were just the two of us neither one was disturbed in our quests. His was to eat and mine was to photograph. We were very close to one another and both of us were OK with that. In the first two images you'll see him in the air, the middle two are of him with his kill and the last two are close ups of his head only. To get that look I had to lay on the ground to be at his level. Though my decent to the snow was none too graceful, he never objected and never lost focus on what he was doing. I hope you enjoy these half as much as I did in taking them.
Thanks for looking in and remember, this is a wild hawk and not a captive.

Side note: Since they are quick downloads, I strongly urge you to look at the close ups in that format. You might like the detail.

WOW, What a great set of pictures. Great detail in all of them. It must have been great to be one to one with it. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Interesting that any travel brochure about Alaska is about, mountains, wildlife, fishing, hunting, what about fall colors? I never see that mentioned. Here are a few samples.


All great pictures, I like nos 1 & 5 the best. A great range of colors in no 5.

That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;

Two days ago on a sunny but windy day I took these 3 Seagull photos over the Coeur d' Alene Lake beach area which ranged from 350' to 650'. I am still practicing with this new Tamron lens for BIF photos. I'll get better as time goes on.
All photos were shot at 600mm.


Great shots.

I posted an image of a black squirrel recently and was told by a couple of hoggers that they had never seen a black squirrel before.

As it turns out they are very rare save in East Texas. I would say that every fourth squirrel I see is a the Eastern Texas Black Squirrel...the black squirrel is a melanistic sub group of the Eastern Grey Squirrel and is reportedly seen across only 1 in 10,000 times. Not so in east Texas as you can read in the text of this link:

http://myetx.com/the-east-texas-black-squirrel/

The attached recent shots are of differing poses of the same individual black squirrel...enjoy, that is if you enjoy squirrels!

Encourage you to see a few of the DLs...

Currently, there is another discussion on this site about "I don't do any post-processing, because I nail it perfectly in the camera". Frankly, I haven't met but maybe less than 1% of photos that couldn't stand a little bit of post processing work.

I'd like to see some examples from others that say they do 0 post-processing and there is absolutely nothing that could be better with their image...so the rule is, SOC (straight out of the camera) images only...no cropping, or white balance adjustments, cloning, etc.

Let's see some examples. Personally, I don't have any.

I know some people who say its SOC just cropped, so in effect they are not SOC. I do not have any pictures that did not benefit from some PP work no matter how slight.

recently someone posted asking if and why folks use PP. Well this is an example - not a good one, but at least an example.

The figures are a collection that I painted last year blended together in layers, probably 12 or 15 photos. Between the layers I used photoshop smoke to attempt to provide atmosphere and distance between them.

The sky is computer generated via a program called Terragen 2.

The fractal background is generated by a free program called MB3D using parameters shared by Lenord.

And then I mashed a number of buttons in Nik software to try to better integrate the layers together.

So anyway... I use photoshop (not very well) not to "fix" an image, but (since I can't paint) to assist in creating something new - and for FUN!
