Day 195

Sunday, July 13, 2014

This is the sunrise yesterday, following the Super Moon.  It was pretty bright… (1/8000s f/8.0 ISO320 214mm -3 stops Canon 7D) An early Robin enjoying the sunrise, too. (1/750s f/6.7 ISO320 300mm -1/2 stop 7D) One of those artsy, out-of-focus-foreground photographs. (1/125s f/16.0 ISO320 277mm 7D) Two pelicans. (1/1500s f/8.0 ISO320 300mm -1.5 stops 7D) […]

Day 194

Sunday, July 13, 2014

A selection of the Super Moon rising last night. Fife in the setting sun. The sky has some haze thanks to Canadian forrst fires.  Hence some of the orange on the Moon. (1/60s f/8.0 ISO200 79mm -1/2 stop Canon 7D) A Super Moon is when the Moon is closest to the Earth when it is […]

Day 193

Sunday, July 13, 2014

This Western Grebe was swimming along the shore, which downy Giant Springs usually means along the road.  He was too close to post it at 100% here! (1/350s f/5.6 ISO160 300mm +1 stop Canon 7D) A bunny, just because I can. (1/60s f/8.0 ISO160 269mm +1/2 stop 7D) ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

A well hidden Redwinged Blackbird. (1/350s f/5.6 ISO160 300mm +1/2 stop Canon 7D) Here he is again with a couple of his pals: juvenile American Robins. (1/350s f/5.6 ISO160 300mm 7D) ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 191

Sunday, July 13, 2014

I got to take Miss Toots to swimming last week.  Here she is at kickboard practice, one of my favorites! (1/45s f/5.6 ISO4000 112mm Canon 7D) Who knew it was so dim in there?  I had to use 4000 ISO to stop motion…and not well at that! (1/45s f/5.6 ISO4000 135mm 7D) ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! […]

Day 190: Flowers along the River, Part 3

Tuesday, July 8, 2014

A short walk along Rivers Edge Trail near Rainbow Dam and Falls provided a wide variety of flowers and other stuff.  I know a lot of them are probably weeds, but the flowers are interesting! (All photos taken on the Nikon Coolpix P7100) This is an “other stuff”…a shy bird in a tree. * * […]

Day 187

Monday, July 7, 2014

Down by the River I saw a Kingfisher. (1/250s f/5.6 ISO160 300mm +1/2 stop Canon 7D I saw another one, or maybe this one, in about the same place, just a few feet from where the Great Blue Heron was, a day or tow later.  He was hovering in air like he was lining up […]
