These are beautiful! Especially love the first two. Composition on #1 is georgeous. Really man, don't you love going out in the rain? I think I prefer rain or mist to sunshine. I was out at Foley Mountain Nature Preserve all day today and it rained non stop and I had a ball. I'll show you some of it as soon as I can figure out how to post them and what size they need to be. Glennie and I will be heading out in the morning again at 5AM but from the looks of the sky tonite I think it will be clear with some ground fog in the morning. So that means that the day falls apart as soon as the light gets too contrasty :dunno
Latter and happy imaging.
It's all about the art of seeing with your heart.

Nice set of pics, Harry. That rain has been over here, also, causing lighting/shooting problems. :dunno I am afraid to go out in the rain for fear of melting. :huh
One of your favorite buds...in the rain. :uhoh

Thanks Bob. The lighting during a rainy day can be beautiful and as long as I can keep my gear protected its great to shoot in.

Thanks Mike but you had to throw in a great NH shot. To make it worst you shot it from inside your house.

Hey Harry, Thanks for your efforts to help us figure out the image display thing. It was real considerate of you. As it turns out Andy pointed out that the "img" icon has to be at the beginning AND at the end of the remote address.
So I was trying to tell you about this wonderful conservation project here called Foley Mountain and how it rained all day Friday ...

... and this little sweety ...
http://www.igs.net/~yesamen/Dgrin_resizes/Dear_8x10.jpg
is a ridiculously resed-up crop out of this ...

... and she just stood there while I sweet talked her and told her she was beautiful and that she's such a good girl. I guess she bought it. She didn't run away ...

Once again thanks, it's good to have some good photographers to hang with.

Not to mention...often times, the feathers take on an unusual color/look ....when they get wet. :D

Appreciate the vote of approval. We don't suppose ourselves to be any kind of proficient with wildlife. Not equiped for it. We just get lucky now and then. Nature and Landscape has been our focus for a long time.
