Preping for Merritt Island with Harry

[gluwater]

I've begun prepping myself for Merritt Island in February. Basically that involves processing shots from last Feb :lol3.

Roseates are very pretty birds.

Wow, nice collection Nick, when you go to Merritt Island will there be gators as well as bird life ???

The second shot of the GBH is quite a stiking looking bird.
Glad your going to get to shoot with Harry again Nick.

Sure there are gators Skippy. The birds need something to stand on.

I wish I came home with only 1500. I think the final count from last year was 7,000 :crazy . I hate waking up early but it's worth it for that sweet light.

Bravo, Nick! Wow, sweet birds WITH sweet light. That's just.... sweet. :D

Excellent shots Nick, now finish up your post work on last year's shoot.

If you really wnat to prep for MI V you should get your pasty northern body to a tanning salon. :D

I'ts my disguise Harry. I'm trying to blend in with the egrets. If that fails I can take my shirt off and I'm a natural reflector for fill light :uhoh .

Great shots, I love the Egret on the Gator.. Can you say..Papa got a new pair of shoes.

Thanks for looking everyone. Hopefully I'll get some better images at MIV. I have to keep up with all you great photogs that post in here regularly. I think I've learned a lot this year.

Andy I don't think anyone can really keep Harry in line, well besides Linda that is.
