If I only take one Wood Duck picture this year, this one is it! I was at Inglewood when he flew by me. I had my camera ready for some other birds so I just raised my lens and fired away! The Wood Ducks are my number one favorite birds. Shot in Focal Length 400mm, S 1/640, F 6.3, ISO 320, Auto WB and Matrix Metering. Used Topaz AI to sharpen.
Beautiful action shot!
One day old, newly hatched chick.

this is one of my favourite benches in Collingwood off lead area 6 big spruce trees surround it blocking any view of downtown Calgary.
Cool bench! It’s obviously not on the city’s radar, whose policy seems to be get rid of anything that’s historic and full of character.

My first and last tripod shot. A tabletop tripod came with the last camera I bought so I was the only one sitting in the sand for the astral photography session in the Sahara. I got this shot thanks to the expert coaching of one of our group leaders.

I’m getting a cold so I’m absent today. I just wanted to add a note that I don’t understand why there are stars in the sand dune in front of the camel

The Saharan sand is the beautiful orange colour I remember from 1974 when I (stupidly) spent three weeks hitchhiking across it from Algiers to Kano, Nigeria.
