Ultraviolet shot of orchids.
My Vivitar flash crapped out on me, and this is the only shot that it actually fired on. I have a loose connection that I need to solder back together.

Burrowing Owls (Athene cunicularia)
I went chasing around those same owls again. I’m sure they’re getting sick of me.

I robbed the lens of my holga for use on my D200. I still haven’t finished the mount for my D200, and now I want a new holga.

Free to good home. Just be careful, he bites.
Ben went on vaction and left hamsty at the house. Hopefully he finds a place for it before he leaves for Texas.

Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis)
This guy was easy to shoot. He was just floating in the breeze moving pretty slowly. I do need a longer reach. I used high speed crop mode, and I still cropped the picture significantly in photoshop.

Burrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia)
That’s either a really small owl or a really big lamp post.
