Ha!! If I had myself cloned...I had my one seater lazyboy cloned as well........ :P
 
hmmmmmmm ....... well one chair is enough anyway :)
 
I can but try :D Or is that I'm trying as many have pointed out to me in my very few years :thinking:
 
errrr........ I think so :thinking: :lol:
 
So have you guys got busy fun filled days today? :-)
 
Thanks Jeff :) will try that one
 
Ok Guys - I am going to have to cheat just a teeny weeny bit today as I didnt manage to take any photos yeasterday at all - except for my daughters boyfriend showing me a few tricks with lights and the camera :D and they are not good enough to put on here so I went out today(with some bread for the ducks) and guess who came for a bite to eat??? Mr Heron!!! Two years!!... yes TWO years I have been trying to capture him up close but never been able to - he's always stayed at the other side of the lake and as my strongest lens is my 80-200mm I just couldnt get good enough shots of him but today he made my day by standing no more than 6 feet away from me so I took as many as I could get before he flew off to another part of the lake. So the title of todays shot (well yesterdays) is JOY as that is what I felt when I saw him :D
No editing done on this one at all yet so critique is welcome :)

Thanks Kev :) No crop on either one - that is how close I got to him - right up close :D Had another even closer but the b/g looks like he's moving at a very igh speed :lol: Love taking photos of these birds - even if they dont do as you want them to :)

By crop..I apologise I meant close up.. Slippage of the tongue..
 
:) Glad you like it though :)
 
Great shots of the Heron Carol.....for me they are your best shots to date(probably because I only normally do bird photography, so I do lean towards bird shots)...
 
Fantastic shots carol, Xmas can be a hard time to get photos as we are usually to busy, these are lovely shots tho especially as they played ball for you being so close

Wow! Thanks Lee :) That coming from someone who does Bird Photography is a compliment in itself :) I am very pleased with them I have to admit - even got one of him in flight and will try and get it on here so you can see - not the best shot but I like it :)

You have every right to be pleased with them.... and, in flight shots are much harder generally anyway...
