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.

 

Each member please post no more than just one image to this weekly thread per week.

 

Welcome to the first MiN thread of the new year and the new decade! I'm sure we're all looking forward to the opportunities that the new year may afford. I know that I am. To kick things off, here's an image of seals captured near Fort Bragg, California. The image is not new, but the processing is. My new, high-resolution, calibrated monitor is making old images new again. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

Short-eared owl at Buena Vista Grasslands, WI on 1/4.

Can’t claim to be overly excited by the image quality - combination of being fair distance away, right at or a little after sunset, fast motion and probably poor operator technique.

Nevertheless, these are beautiful, graceful and gregarious acrobats that are a joy to watch.
