I think my nephew could be modeling...

What say you? He's got a fantastic personality in front of the lens, bright eyes and good features. Not to mention eye lashes a supermodel would die for...

Captured my 1st Green Heron....

I was actually shooting some turtles sunning themselves on logs in a canal and heard a rustle in the grass and up popped this little guy. For once I had the right lens (100-400 IS) but didn't have exposure set properly. Most of my shots are blurred even though he wasn't moving that much.

Fireworks...and a foiled plan

Well I managed to sneak into my super secret location about an hour before the fireworks were to start. Only to be discovered by a security guard. He nicely told me to park my butt across the fence on the public side.

I still got some decent shots. However I was forced to have several parking lot lights in the shots (as you can see from this example). The shots with the Bethlehem Steel Blast Furnace Towers, lit up in red from the Sands Casino, look really good however. You almost forget there's a parking lot in the foreground.

Happy Independence Day America!

Yesterday I shot a familiar location with the new Rebel T1i. Very impressed with this camera so far.

Tonight I've scoped out a great location to snap the local fireworks display. Sshhh! It's a secret location.
