Caught this blue jay grabbing a peanut just this afternoon. I often sit in our backyard putting peanuts out for local squirrels, capturing them with my Canon SX10. When the blue jay started going for the peanuts too, I went and got my XSi, as the other camera was too slow to be able to capture the bird.<br>

Canon XSi, 75-300mm IS lens, 1/400 @5.6, ISO 400</p>

 

<p>Hi. I'm a next-door neighbor, a Nikonian (D90). I can't help but notice that the Canon colors are more vibrant than Nikon. Keep up the good work.</p>

<p>A mixture of old and new. It looks like an old barn with a new steel door and a new conveyor our front. The small sign says Bay Alarm Company on it so I guess its wired for alarm. Its right next to a high school so I can't understand why there is no graffiti on it.</p><div></div>

<p>Here is a sunrise I saw on the way to work. It was 10/19/2010 7:35 and I pulled over on the side of the road and shot from my car. I did no editing of the shot except normalize it with Picassa.</p><div></div>

<p>OH! Canon 75 mm lens 1/250s f7.1 ISO 400</p>

<p>Josh wasn't the only one at a pumpkin patch lately. That's my 2 year old bottom right wondering what's going on. The Visa/Mastercard sign reminds you how much you are about to spend!</p><div></div>

<p>I really couldn't do justice to the beautiful paint on this '57 Chevy at a local car show this past weekend.</p>

<p>A classic car club showed up at the parking lot of one of the places I go to do wildlife photography. Here's a classic Mercury with a custom paint job. 1D Mark IV Canon 16-35L.</p><div></div>
