Mom4squirrels > REFLECTIONS IN THE RIVER    
 OCTOBER 7TH

My husband, Bob and I took a walk late this afternoon in the park along the river..the water was still enough to provide us with a beautiful reflection of the trees above.  I believe you can see the snails on the stones under the water.  
Here are some of the other reflections with ripples making it look like a water color  See gallery below

Mom4squirrels > River Reflections too
October 8th

I was priviledged to spend the day at a talk given by Arthur Morris!! Mr. Morris wrote the book THE ART OF BIRD PHOTOGRAPHY.  He was quite delightful and his photos were breath-taking!  So today's daily photo is actually from yesterday's trip to the park..one of many that I'd love to post...sigh...

WOOD DUCK

Went to the duck pond today and photographed the wood ducks. This is my husband's choice..mine is in the gallery:   http://mom4squirrels.smugmug.com/gallery/1761912/6/101349791
What do you think?  

Two problems.. 1) This is in RAW and I don't know how to post process yet (other than generic highlights and sharpen in iPhoto and 2)  One of my CF cards suddenly came up with CF ERR...stopped taking pictures and could not be opened even with retrieval software.  Anyone ever have that problem?  Do you know the cause?  This was a Lexar 1GB pro card.  Wonder if my  best shots are sitting in there, unreadable??

BEE CAREFUL

The sage flowers are fading now leaving the bees with little to eat.  This bee appears to be biting through the back of the a dying flower in hopes of getting the last of the nectar. Looks like one of those "hang in there" photos to me  :-) 
I tried to crop it off center, but some photos just end up in the middle no matter what you do!

Crane Fly Duo

This crane fly was clinging to the glass on my storm door as the rain and wind started late this afternoon.  I worked very hard to get this reflection without getting the door frame..in very poor light.

"The Falling Leaves...."

Walking through the woods today I came across this leaf resting on a stone wall. The shadow reminded me of the wings of a butterfly.  I like the imperfections and the contrast against the blue-gray stone...especially as the sun came through the trees and briefly highlighted it...soon all the beautiful fall color will be gone..how sad!

HAPPY SQUIRREL
This is an Eastern Fox Squirrel.  It is the largest of the squirrels we have here in Ohio.  I have tried many times over the summer to get a good squirrel shot in the morning with backlighting...and without blowing the highlights.  This guy sat there long enough that I could try some different angles.  I loved his facial expression...so I made it my DP choice of the day...but my second and equally favorite is here: http://mom4squirrels.smugmug.com/gallery/1855638/1/102308258  I liked them both for different reasons...This one for the facial expression...

This is my last post for about a week.  We are going to Cape May, NJ to see the bird migration that comes each Fall down the Eastern seaboard.  I hope to get some good bird pictures...HA!  If only they'd hold still long enough to get one!  We'll see how my 30D does with that machine gun burst...and how well the weather holds up for photographing.  See you soon...

Mom4squirrels > COUPLE BY THE FALLS
October 21, 2006

We have just returned from our trip to Cape May, NJ to watch the bird migration heading to points South. (I haven't had a chance to post process any of the shots yet.) We took advantage of the brief period of sunshine here in Cleveland today and went to the park where we found this couple and their friends taking photos in the same spot we were in. I couldn't resist capturing them while trying the slow speed shot of the falls...

Waterfall too

I spent this rainy cold day cleaning the garage so my car would fit in before the predicted snowfall tomorrow...no time for photos today...no trip photos yet either... This is one of two photos that I liked of the same waterfall that the couple was standing on.  BTW, they were not posing for me..there was another friend taking their photo.  Here is my second choice:
