Rare pierces Posted December 12, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Pictures taken between Monday, December 12 and Sunday, December 18. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! 'Tis the season for the joy of photography! (Then again, what season isn't!) Rules: See above That's it. This isn't a contest. All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising). Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize. The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays. Post one. Post many. Up to you. Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pierces Posted December 19, 2022 Author #4 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Back in January 2020, Wonderful Wife stated that in addition to our holiday family gatherings, she would like to add a big family and friends party to the schedule. COVID-19 said no. Fast-forward to this year and her pandemic-delayed dream came true. We sent out real (well, digital) invitations and Kim went through a dozen iterations of menu plans, dreamed up decorations and asked family to lend us enough seating for the event. I built three café tables, put up a party tent on the deck and laid out a network of heaters for the expected 50° evening temps. Even with Daughter Kassi providing the desserts, the estimated cost and effort was off by a factor of three or so. Worth. Every. Penny. (And aching body part.) Fun was had by all.

zackiedawg Posted December 22, 2022 #5 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Back to the wetlands after missing a week up at Disney! Visited on Sunday, as Saturday was a rainout and spent wrapping Christmas gifts. The strange and alien chuck-will's-widow was still hanging around: A great egret coming in for a somewhat messy landing: A glossy ibis about to land, showing some of those iridescent brown feathers that give them the name: A great blue heron walking across the levee: A grey-headed swamphen wading through deeper water than it expected: A red-shouldered hawk flying over me near sunset: A wood stork all spread out in the last of daylight skies: By 5pm, the sun has dropped below the treeline and the wetlands fall into dusk - the last shot I could manage was this great egret flying in to roost at dusk - ISO 6,400 needed at this point!: 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
