<p>Mark, love it.<br>

Louis, beautiful portrait. <br>

This is a Snowy Owl enjoying some late afternoon sun and warmth while up on one of his favorite perches. I've seen some territorial disputes between this owl and a Red-tailed Hawk. The owl never backs down. Last evening he was out in the pouring wind driven rain, soaking wet, and hunting in ground fog off the snow. Those big beautiful gold eyes are well adapted and this bad-ass owl is a successful hunter.</p><div>00cRo4-546193584.JPG.de110d85d4ef8cc15b479de8bbd6010a.JPG</div>

<p>I've just been out for a couple of hours along Cliveden Reach and these are the first shots out of the cameras.<br /> All are shot with a 5D2 and 24-104, the foggy shot was overexposed by ~3 stops to burn out the background. The other two shots use stacked ND 8 and ND 1000 filters to give exposures of ~90 and 120 seconds.<br>

<p>Nice Cliveden shots, Peter. I especially like the first one. I know this stretch of the Thames very well. I used to have a little cabin cruiser and spent many a happy evening moored up at Cliveden before the National Trust got snotty about overnight stays!</p>

<p>Shot with EOS M and 22mm f/2.0 lens. This is 2nd floor of the Main Street Station in downtown Richmond, VA. This train station was built in 1901 and remains an icon part of the downtown landscape in Richmond.<br>

<p>I tried to photograph small birds in flight. First, tree swallows (<em>Tachycineta bicolor</em>) as they skimmed over a lake in the late afternoon sun. Quite tricky - they move so fast and most shots were focused on the background.</p><div>00cRp8-546195984.jpg.f309ff45952d8517bd43c31bf89d50cb.jpg</div>
