DavidTriplett Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Basic Guidelines: In the strictest sense, nature photography should not include "hand of man elements". Please refrain from images with buildings or human made structures like roads, fences, walls. Pets are not permitted. Captive subjects in zoos, arboretums, or aquariums are permitted, but must be declared, and must focus on the subject, not the captivity. Images with obvious human made elements will likely be deleted from the thread, with an explanation to the photographer. Guidelines are based on PSA rules governing Nature photography which also cover the Nature Forum. Keep your image at/under 1000 pixels on the long axis for in-line viewing. Note that this includes photos hosted off-site at Flicker, Photobucket, your own site, etc Are you new to this thread? We post one image per week. Each member please post no more than just one image to this weekly thread per week. From last weekend's Yellowstone sojourn. The sky really was that dark as late afternoon thunderstorms built up to a massive crescendo. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShunCheung Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 David, thanks for starting the thread. That is a dramatic image from Yellowstone. My image is a bald eagle bringing breakfast home to the chicks. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidTriplett Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 a bald eagle bringing breakfast home to the chicks. Shun, you've had some amazing bald eagle pix the past few weeks! From close to home, or all captured while travelling? That 500 PF is getting a workout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuntaColorada Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 An alien from the moon...or a deeply cropped water strider. [ATTACH=full]1300710[/ATTACH] When I waded un-protected into our pond (in Canada), I found out that these aggressive S.O.B.s bite! It isn't severe; but it is noticeable.

Tony Parsons Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Froglet - one of hundreds in grass after extremely heavy rain - This may have given rise to the story about 'raining frogs', as there was a pond nearby, from which they probably came, and Grey Herons choose the area for frogging in Spring. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
