Janet: Hello, Friends!  Let's get this going again!  I miss  hearing from all of you! 2025-01-23, 19:26:16

Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

Janet: Carol, I am just reading this.  So sorry for your loss, glad your beloved Don knew the Lord and you have the assurance of his eternity  and that you WILL see him again.  Much love to you.  Janet 2022-06-18, 08:49:36

Oldiesmann: So sorry for your loss Carol. Praying for you and your family :( 2022-05-01, 17:13:05

This big bird flew right by me recently as I waited along to Imazu River, well, for birds to fly by!   ;)

I do use the "digital darkroom".  My main editing program is Aperture 3.0, produced by Apple, for editing with Macs.  It's not as versatile as Photoshop, but I just do some basic, exposure, level, and highlight adjustments.  And at the end, when necessary, add a tiny bit of edge sharpening.

However, Canon "L" lenses are very sharp, and almost all my bird photos are shot with one of my two "L" lenses, so not a whole lot of sharpening is necessary.

Thanks for the comments, everyone!

Be careful where you are when one of these gorgeous creatures flies by.  I watched one take off and about 10 feet away from me he dumped.  Bird droppings on the car from robins and sparrow or even crows are one thing, but from a bird this size....   ;D

Judy, it's funny now, but at the time I could only offer a little prayer of praise that he wasn't any closer.

Very good. BIFs are great fun. You did well. Herons tend to be spooky.
