Big Lake Interpretive Trail, Sturgeon County, AB, Canada.
7D | 300/2.8L + 2x | 1/8 sec., f/32, ISO 100; on tripod.

One of the things I like to do when I have nothing new or better to shoot...just shoot some abstracts. It could be tougher as the number of keepers to get the right composition is lower than sharp photos.

Enjoy!

Juneau, Alaska.
5D2 and 70-200/2.8L IS

Humpback Whales are everywhere in Alaska. Just too bad I didn't see any of them breach out of the water...maybe next time.

More photos to come. In the mean time, enjoy!

Emily Murphy Park, Edmonton, AB, Canada
August 21, 2011

So far I've seen quite a few warblers at Emily Murphy Park and Kinsmen area during my off work hours, but I have not photographed them successfully. While the 400/5.6L is a great bird-in-flight (BIF) lens, I find it fairly difficult to shoot songbirds in the dense wood areas with that lens because of the lack of stabilization and far minimum focus distance. I'm just not used to the lens yet. These Vireo shots are probably better than most of my other songbird shots I've been taking for the past weeks. I will post the other warbler shots soon.

A pair of Gray Partridges that hung around near my office window every morning in March came back and buried themselves into the snow for the whole day in the midst of a snow storm throughout Edmonton and area.
