Critters!
Everyone that follows me and sees my work knows that I seem to concentrate on very wide angle landscape HDR images. And I agree, that is my specialty. However, I took a trip to Chincoteague and Assateague island a week ago and in processing my images have found that I must have spent a lot of time sneaking up on birds and animals! This type of thing isn’t what I normally do, but I thoroughly enjoyed it! It gave me a chance to use my long zoom lens (which doesn’t get used nearly enough to justify me having it in my bag) and it is just plain fun to sneak around in the grass trying to get the shot of a White Egret stalking its prey.
I previously posted these pictures on my Facebook page (www.facebook.com/uprootedphotographer), but they look much better when viewed large. All of these critters were photographed at the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge. It really makes me want to take up bird watching…maybe.
