Photos I take.
I did some digging and the only photo threads I saw were ones with vehicles in them, but I may have missed it.
Does anyone else take pictures of just about anything that moves or doesn't move ? I travel the backroads as far as I can before I hit the city roads to get to work. That works out to about 25 miles or so, through the country, and one of my hobbies is taking pics with my Canon. And if it gets in my way or catches my eye, its mine, if I'm quick enough.     I had to open a few roads on the way to work yesterday morning. we had 15 inches of snow.  One of many coyote  One of 2 rabbits that live in a cow pasture, and I'm not sure how they are still alive.. They are domesticated rabbits I'm guessing. ?? I started seeing them in Nov. of 2012  A turkey vulture.    There's an eagle in the tree just off center in the right side in the tree.  I have more if anyone is interested in them. Please add your own if you have any, or am I the only photo nut here ?  . |

Re: Photos I take.
Cool pics. You've got a good eye for photography. Liking the cow in the fog and the hawk in the tree pics. And of course the modded Clod bodies on your RCs. Got some trail trucks myself. You're right, addiction. Great dog, too. Got a couple rescue dogs here, too. They love chasing the RCs

Lucky is the best dog I've ever owned. He is extremly loyal.I have more pics, so I will put a few up again and save some for another day. I have this really bad habit of taking pics while driving, and let me say, its not a good idea, really, but..  Like this one.  I see this dog just about everyday, and she finally let me take her picture..no, she's not mine, just someone I meet almost daily in the country  I was waiting for eagles and I caught these guys (ok,girls) going around me.   And if you have ever heard of the Piasa bird in Alton Il, or along the Mississippi, this is the painting.  A storm rolling in.   License plates for the 64  Another barn..The warped barn or..    and I will stop with the Coopers Hawk in my backyard, it had just knocked down a little bird and was looking for it.    he finds it  Lunch...

Re: Photos I take.
I used to pass a barn very much like that everyday going to/from work. Waiting for years, many years, before it finally fell. The county must have gotten on someone about it though. Soon after it "broke", it was torn down and hauled away.

Re: Photos I take.
Thank you guys, its just something I have always liked to do. I just, (sounds weird) see pictures, for a lack of better words.
@ 72BlckButy, I was using a 1st edition Canon Digital Rebel, that my daughter bought new in 99 or 2000. Then she handed it down to me in 2009 or somewhere in that time frame. I just bought a Canon D60 with a bunch of other goodies. Most of the pics I am putting up are from the old Rebel, but a few are the newer one, like the snow pics of the deer and the drifted roads, and the snow covered tree along Salt Creek. Thank you again everyone, I have tons more. One more for the night. Some of you may have seen this in the Eagle thread around here somewhere. Its one of the Decorah Iowa Fish Hatchery Eagles. The wife and I went up last June to see them up close instead of on Ustream.  Ok, one more These are both the Decorah parents.  Goodnight all, and "Thank You " for looking. Its why I take pictures, of everything. I'm just a novice. . |

Re: Photos I take.
This is my "Rock Star Eagle" pic.
   You just never know what will be in the creek, and this makes me wonder where the driver went too..

Re: Photos I take.
Keep them coming motornut, I like to see what other people see.
I tried to help this guy off the road and he wanted nothing to do with me at all. If I made a step towards him, he would snap, if I tried to go around, he quickly spun around. He was a good size snapper.. I left him to fend for himself.   A little foggy one morning and I was paying attention, luckily  I let them cross  . |
