GRANNY

I like this shot of Granny [Dianne's Mom] sitting in the backyard on a short break.  I like the tone and the lighting but mainly the fact that Kale is out of focus in the background which adds a multi-generational element to the scene.

MAGNOLIA BLOSSOM HONEY BEE

I took this shot of a honey bee on a Magnolia blossom at the Baytown Nature Center this past weekend.

BOLIVAR LIGHTHOUSE

This shot of the lighthouse on Bolivar Point in Texas was taken on this past rainey Sunday morning.

NEGLECTED CHUTE

I took this shot at on old ranch in Warrington, TX on a trip to the Spring Antique Weekend.  There is an old house and barn but this neglected cattle chute caught my eye.

WHITE PELICAN

I took this shot of a White Pelican at the Baytown Nature Center last weekend.  We see lots of Brown Pelicans at the nature center but I haven't seen many of these white ones, and it's the first one I've photographed.

BACKYARD MUSHROOMS

After the big rain we had on Saturday a bunch of these little 2" tall delicate little mushrooms showed up in our backyard flower bed.

BNC OSPREY_122614

I photographed this Osprey at the Baytown Nature Center this morning using my Olympus EP-1, Sigma 50-500, and flash with extender.  I photograph Osprey at lot at the nature center but I really like this shot.
