<p>Happy Thursday everyone! School is in full swing and it seems like I hardly pick up my camera anymore, but I did manage to get up the road to the state forest this week to shoot a few photos and I have a couple trips planned during my upcoming breaks. I went to the forest to hopefully find some birds and/or ducks, but instead found this doe probably wondering where all the water has gone as she stands in a bone dry creek bed. Let's see all those amazing photos that have been getting better each week.</p><div>00ZGeY-394611584.jpg.e8a9300a946ccd49ffbeba20e5083364.jpg</div>

<p>Well... Facebook now allows up to 960 px, when will PHOTO.net increase past the now relatively postage-stamp 700 px? <br>

This is the end of a fun effort last Saturday evening BBQing with friends--dinner is served. Chow down. EOS 7D, 16-35 lens.</p><div>00ZGey-394619884.jpg.08df4c38aca6667e6822d446e9a4b7cc.jpg</div>

<p>While Irene is no doubt on the minds of many Americans, this week also saw the anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. I just happened to be in Gulfport, MS this week and wanted to post a photo in memory of the tragic moment in history. Six years after there is still much evidence of the destruction along the Mississippi coast - mostly in the form of empty lots with cement foundations where houses and stores used to be. This gnarled tree next to US Route 90 was probably alive to witness Katrina at her fiercest when she made landfall on 8/29/05.</p><div>00ZGf4-394623584.jpg.ac881b1a2e438d7376fadf5ba461ef99.jpg</div>

<p>Hurricane Irene passed through here Sat. and Sun. We were fortunate--especially when compared to states further north. As the outer bands of Irene rolled in bringing wind and rain, I went down to the river and saw this cormorant (and others) sitting on a piling. It was facing into the wind and rain.<br>

Mark Kissel, I appreciate your critiques and thank you for them. However, I understand that like most of us you have a life outside of photo.net that takes your precious time and can understand when you don't get around to it. Nice photo this week as is everyone's.</p>

<p>Great shots so far by all. I really like <strong>Jeff's</strong> and <strong>Ian's</strong> but<strong> Peter</strong>, that's a classic. Beautifully composed and captured. Well done.<br /> Like Nathan, I am back to school so I haven't done much but by next week I'll be into the sports shooting in a big way. Here's one from a few weeks ago. I don't think I posted it before but if I did, I apologize.</p><div>00ZGhn-394667584.jpg.874d8b845426f5c24f41aae13051ef6b.jpg</div>

<p>School started, I teach, and I shot nothing for the past few of weeks. But high school and college athletics have started up again and, since I am a sports junkie, have allowed me to imbibe in one of my favorite activities. This is from our school's first football game of the season.</p><div>00ZGj8-394687584.jpg.83898218c460b363a352c3ab5715d645.jpg</div>

<p>This week is easily one of the best weeks yet for this forum, the level of work being presented just seems to get stronger and stronger. I will post comments on some of them later.</p>

<p>Image wise, this was a challenging week. I had the oppurtunity to photograph several wild birds in amazing light but just couldn't seem to land that "winning" shot. Mostly due to missed focus on in flight shots or simply not "feeling it" when doing PP. This one is close to what I imagined when taken, still-I feel the PP could be better. Suggestions appreciated.</p>

<p>Taken on a recent visit to the NJ Canon repair facility in Jamesburg.</p><div>00ZGjq-394695584.jpg.87f7f08c52c5e69fe849a9e98de904fa.jpg</div>
