Hi all.. (optimism eh?)

I haven't blogged for a while, and you obviously don't feel the need to comment on Jimmy Hendrix, so how about a few more pictures..

These have all been taken over the weekend, at a local nature park.



The swan is a pretty simple composition but I think it works quite well.



Old England in the fall..



A kingfisher..

This is the best I've got so far of the kingfishers there. Taken with a 300mm lens on a 2x converter.. on a DSLR that's a focal length of 900mm.. handheld. So it's not that bad an attempt really. They're so fast when they fly, as this one shows..



that if they land you just have to snap away and hope that you got it. Still, that'll be my challenge over the next week or two.

I've got plenty more to show, so this will probably be a photo blog for a little while.

Cheers

Liam
