mark fadely Offline Image Upload: On SoCal Sampler Really nice shots Ken. I like #2 the best. The lighting is fantastic with all the color. Good job on all of them. Apr 30, 2008 at 03:40 PM

Please give #2 a bit of ccw rotation, that image is sooooooo beautiful Dave - I did think of that (Slight rotation) at the time of processing but ........... The foreground ripples suggested a need for rotation but, the stonger ripples and lines in the background are in alignment with grid lines. Having them go way out of alignment would seemingly make things feel even more askew. - Ken May 01, 2008 at 01:07 AM

Pretty shot of the BCNH with nesting material. #9, great shot Karl Karl - Thanks. I enjoyed the time at the pond waiting and trying to get my Avocet attempts. I also was happy to get Ibis opportunities in decent light instead of trying to shoot them when I didn't have enough light (I don't own a D3 ) which is the usual scenario. - Ken May 01, 2008 at 01:13 AM

When I was looking at the scene, I knew that I would ideally liked to have positioned the Avocet in another part of the frame, but I just couldn't pass up the reflected colors. - Ken May 01, 2008 at 01:15 AM

John - The breeding color has really come in on those Ibis. Unlike the ones at SJWS, these like to come in when there is still sunlight, and there are more of them with the white face that gives them their name. - Ken May 01, 2008 at 01:19 AM

You got some great looks at their iridescence. And #2 is a shimmering morning shot --- SJWS? Hope to see you "out there" soon... Best Wishes, Steve Steve - The Ibis shots were taken at Carr Park in Huntington Beach. The Avocet shots were taken at SJWS as you suspected, but in the evening. Hope to see you out in the field again soon. - Ken May 01, 2008 at 01:21 AM

I was hoping that I didn't get too rusty from my 3 months of not shooting. I need to get out there more and get back in the grove. - Ken May 01, 2008 at 01:23 AM

Susan Susan - I guess the action at the Baylands must be really good about now. Or are you on another one of your exotic treks? - Ken May 01, 2008 at 01:25 AM

Thang Offline Buy and Sell: On SoCal Sampler beautiful shots of those Ibis Ken! May 08, 2008 at 04:17 AM

Lil Judd Online Image Upload: Off SoCal Sampler Great series Kenneth, would love to know where you found the White Faced Ibis. A friend found one in Redondo Beach I think...... I'd drive just to see one..... Congratulations Lil May 08, 2008 at 07:02 AM

Lars Johnsson Offline Image Upload: Off SoCal Sampler Fantastic series. Love the first two shots May 08, 2008 at 09:18 AM

There was a half-hearted late evening fly-by on Monday, but the lighting was kind of low by then. Things sure changed from earlier weeks. Good luck if you decide to give it a try over there. - Ken May 08, 2008 at 02:41 PM

A bit of a drive, but I may just make it to try for this beautiful bird. Thanks - - kind of you to share, Lil May 08, 2008 at 06:07 PM
