Birds at Sunset

Here we go. Pictures from this evenings venture out. Not the best, not the brightest, not coolest, just the ones I liked because I never could get shots like this with the other camera. None of them have been altered except the size I used automatic settings on the camera. I have noticed the darker areas around the corners emmm will have to see what does this. The first one is almost full zoom I finally can see features from afar. LOL It is a bit blurry cause I turned around and just took the pic when I heard them.

As the sun went down (and the temp too in a big hurry) I took this by guessing where the sun would line up. Too bright for the eye balls to look at through the view finder. This it what I got.

Last shot before fingers became to darn frooze.

Earlier in the eve I walked out on a platform on a pond like area. It was still froozen over for the most part. As I walked on the little dock like platform the vibration would crack the ice. It rippled across the body of water making a hushed tingling noise that expanded as it moved outward. You could look down and watch the trapped air bubbling up to the bottom of the ice layer. In some areas the smooth surface had been cracked and small chunks of ice glistened in the light.

I tried to capture this but the pics did not catch the beauty of it. ๐Ÿ™ I do for no particular reason like this ice chunk:

Now is the time for all nice photographers to tell me what to do to make em better.

I love my new camera. Just in case I have not mentioned it I love my new camera. Not as much asย  I love my dogs but close!

  1. Hey, I’m gonna leave comments about the photos on your flickr stream, so I can put a note around the part I want to single out. But I just wanted to say..

    These are all awesome!

    On the vignetting (dark edges) — it happens at full zoom with filters on the lens. If you have a UV Fliter and polarizer on at the same time, you’ll get vignetting. It’s not that big of a problem really — sometimes it adds to the shot, but if it bugs you, take the UV filter off and leave the polarizer on if it’s sunny and bright, or take the polarizer off if it’s dimmer.
