A beautiful picnic scene for y’all. Taken from the back yard back when I lived in East Lansing on River Terrace. Picture taken with Canon 300D, 18-55mm lens @ 18mm, 1/160 sec, f/8.0, ISO 100

A seagull… which I’m sure everyone has seen before. I don’t have a huge amount of time spent taking bird in flight pictures, but I think this is one of the better ones I’m managed to get. I think it was taken on Skillagalee Island. Picture taken with Canon Rebel… Continue reading
A Northern White-Cheeked Gibbon. These are pretty common in zoos all over, or, at least they also have some in the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT, EF 70-300mm @ 300mm, 1/400 sec shutter, f/7.1, ISO 1600
A Masked Lapwing – a very goofy looking, floppy faced bird. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT, EF 70-300mm @ 300mm, 1/160 sec shutter, f/5.6, ISO 1600
This is the same Victoria Crowned Pigeon from before, just another shot of it, apparently with a shutter speed of 1/20 of a second, which seems ridiculous. I must have moved by the exact same amount and direction as the bird for this to have come out even view-able. Picture… Continue reading
This was one of the under-gorillas – not sure if it was male or female. I’m not completely sure what variety of gorilla these were, but my best guess is that they were Western Lowland Gorillas. They look different than those in the Lincoln Park Zoo – more red-brown and… Continue reading
How’s ’bout we have some animal pictures for a bit? Yes, that sounds like a plan. This is a canary gorilla from Animal Kingdom back in 2006 when I first had a fancy camera and long lens. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT, EF 70-300mm @ 300mm, 1/500 sec shutter,… Continue reading
Happy 4th of July! More of a snapshot than a well composed photo, but this is the Au Sable Light House in Pictured Rocks. Still, it ended up pretty simple and clean so I like it. I didn’t plan it to be the 4th of July pic, and looking at… Continue reading
The dunes along Lake Superior’s Southern shoreline in Pictured Rocks taken from somewhere along the hike to the Au Sable Light House. Picture taken with Canon 300D, EF-S 18-55mm lens @ 54mm, f/12, 1/320 sec, ISO 100
The title of this one should be something like “stay off the damn water.” Picture taken from Mosquito Chapel Beach in Pictured Rocks which is about 8 miles from where we started the trip. There was some lightning and we actually did have to stay off the water for a… Continue reading
