Member69643 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 <p>What a great shot Kent! What a beauty! Iowa has had greyhound racing, but its lost money since the get-go and was only kept afloat by forcing casinos to bankroll it. Now they're thinking about eliminating it altogether. I wish the dogs were treated better, and have always wanted to get into greyhound rescue some day. Maybe by the time I actually can, the "sport" will be gone?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member69643 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 <p>Spring is a long ways off, but this Magnolia seems to always start early. Not much development yet but there's hope...</p> <p><img src="http://wolfeye.smugmug.com/photos/i-qzR5Hw8/0/L/i-qzR5Hw8-L.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="536" /><br> <strong>Nikon D3000 amd 35mm lens</strong></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

User_2019667 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 <p>How about a shiny Ford Cobra that I think would be soothing to the soul cruising down the roadway behind the wheel.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User_2019667 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 <p>Correction that photo of the Cobra was actually taken with a F100 not an F3. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShunCheung Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 <p>At a parking area, I saw this sparrow standing on the ledge of a car mirror. It was attacking its own image on the mirror for about 10, 15 minutes. Apparently it was seeing a "rival" bird and was trying to chase it away.</p> <P> D7100 with 80-400mm AF-S VR </P><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjmurray Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 <p>Grabbed my old 55mm micro Nikkor with extension tube and got a couple more shots for today's pics. First one is the curtains in our kitchen, second one is a schefflera plant in our bay window.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justthings Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 <p>Saturday was the first real break in the weather we've been having which has been cold and snowy so I had to get out and just enjoy the day. I walked south more or less following the James River and got some views I haven't seen previously.<br> The statue on the corner of this historic tobacco warehouse (now converted to lofts) is Connecticut - he was originally the mascot for a triple-A baseball team called the Richmond Braves and the statue overlooked the stadium where the Braves played. When that team ceased to exist the statue was moved to its current location.<br> <a title="Connecticut by outwithmycameraVA, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/outwithmycamera13/12801877593/"><img src="http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2849/12801877593_6400114f7f_z.jpg" alt="Connecticut" width="640" height="428" /></a><br> This view is turned just slightly to the east from where Connecticut is but looks more directly over downtown Richmond. I like this sort of view that creates a bit of a palimpsest of old and new architecture.<br> <br /> <a title="WaterTowers by outwithmycameraVA, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/outwithmycamera13/12802192794/"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7373/12802192794_6007b28e1a_z.jpg" alt="WaterTowers" width="503" height="640" /></a><br> After a long wander and a stop over for a beer and fried calamari, my return trip brought me along a portion of the historic canal system that comes through Richmond at a point where the evening light was really nice.<br> <a title="EveningBridge by outwithmycameraVA, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/outwithmycamera13/12801880743/"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7363/12801880743_795a07d14f_z.jpg" alt="EveningBridge" width="640" height="448" /></a></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
