  4. Today I only had to work till about noon which was awesome because it was the first time the sun showed itself in about 2 weeks. I was hoping to just take some pics of ducks and geese so I went to Boundary Bay Park in Tsawwassen. After walking a good portion of the trail with no waterfowl in sight I noticed something far ahead in the tree.....I knew right away it was a Bald Eagle. In order to get a decent photo of it I had to approach from a certain angle due to the angle of the sun. After hopping a wooden fence and hopscotching around water hazards I THOUGHT i was in position for a shot......with the camera ready I aimed it up only to see this through the view finder... Thankfully the giant bird flew only a few trees over. I slowly approached trying not to spook it. I made sure to stop every few steps and take pictures incase I did accidentally spook it so I'd have at least a few pics. However the Eagle wasn't spooked at all..... I said my goodbyes and headed back to the parking lot however the photo expedition was not over yet.... A different Eagle was sitting in a tree close to where I parked so I got a few more pics of it before heading home I mentioned I said my goodbyes and this might sound weird but I thank every animal/bird I take pics of.......I'm normally not superstitions but its just a habit of mine....... Merry Xmas everybody
  5. nice pics man.....just try to keep in mind the "rule of 3"......try and split the pic up into thirds.....try and get a bit more land and not so much sky.....or do a vertical panorama to get the best of both worlds

  10. I use a Manfrotto Modo 785B. It's lightweight, stable, and well built. I needed one that was lightweight because most of my pics are taken far away from any road. I bought it at Blacks on sale for $79.99....regular $99.99 What kind of camera did you get?

  15. Had some time to kill during work today so I stopped at Trout Lake Park and was in the mood to take some pics of waterfowl. I'm gonna be totally honest and say I can't identify all the species (please don't point out the obvious ones lol) but enjoy the pics anyways..... a happy couple I dunno about you guys but I'd label this guy the Millhouse of mallards......only simpsons fans will get that reference...sorry if i've confused you Now these next 3 are my favourite pics I took today and possibly my favourite waterfowl pictures I've ever taken. I can't decide which one of the 3 I like best but I'm gonna rule out the last one becaues of the houses in the background.......I'll let you guys voice your opinions.... loner... bottoms up
