To continue what has become bird week, here are a couple of a Mockingbird I shot. Not the best side but when he turned to look at me I was able to get some nice head and tail shots.
Louisiana Mockingbird
Just Some Grackles
Just some common Grackles while traveling through Texas. She kept giving me the “Stink Eye”, she knew I had french fries and wouldn’t share with her.
Hawk
Out catching this guy on a cloudy day. Still trying to figure out which type of hawk he/she is.
Christmas Lens
I added a new lens for Christmas, a Tamron 150-600 g2, long zoom lens. Hope to catch more wildlife and bird photos for the site.
Some Artwork
Spent a few hours on this one. I have been learning some new skills and how to use Corel Painter. Between youtube and lots of use of ctrl z(undo), I think it turned out pretty nice. Painting of the Grand-dog, Bravo.
Old West
Take a little step back to a simpler time. When the West was still wild and horses were the only form of transport.
Experimenting with Digital Art
I have been investigating another line of art work beyond just photos. Recently picked up a copy of Corel Painter 2021 and have been learning how to use it. Its not s difficult as tring to figure out Photoshop.
Here are a couple of examples…
These are actually painted on computer. Based on some of my photos.
Another Walk in the Swamp
Took the camera out for a little nature hike on a sunny summer day. I guest the critters were also out enjoying the hot summer weather.
Contact me if you would like to purchase copies of any of these images.
Swamp Walk
Took a walk along a Louisiana swamp and go a few shots. Not the best, wrong time of day but it got me out for a little exercise.
A Little Macro
This little lady kept getting in the way while I was working on my porch lights. Almost got smashed a couple of times. Finally got out the D7200 and Tamron 70-300 macro lens and got a few shots. Used Photoshop to focus stack a few images to get a fairly good shot.
