Black-crowned Night Heron

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

Both of the Heron images were beautiful, Tyler. I am partial to wading birds and raptors. Now that fall is almost here, I am going to get over to a spot near here that is rife with waders and migratory birds.

Red Fox - not the comedian!

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

Beautiful, Tyler! If I were to do a book on the Red Fox, I would want that image on the cover.

The Power of Digiscoping, Part 2

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

I rechecked the line of sight distance, and found it to be about 1.4 miles from lens to subject. This says a lot about the air quality in New Mexico. Here is another shot from the same spot, but with a bit more camera zoom. To get this view with the naked eye would require seeing it from a helicopter 180 feet away. There is NO other way.

Moon mosaic Sep 19

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

VERY impressive! Did you use a filter, and if so what type? I am trying to do some moon photography, but am a rank amateur.

Juvenile Tricolored Heron?

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

Chris, do we also get to name stuff we photograph? I always thought this was a Great Blue Heron.

Crappy Bird Photo

Would have been even crappier if you had been standing beneath that flock.

Summer Cooler

Posted By Ron Streetenberger

Here is another shot taken from the same point in early winter. This was a very mild day but too cool for skinny dipping.

Cal, You never disappoint. All of your photos have given my wife and me great pleasure. Your Central American images are especially nice.
