Who’s who
Still working through photos from the Raptor Centen.
It seemed only fair since the raptors were so heavily photographed some of the photographers should end up in front of a camera as well. :-)
PhotoWILD: Still a challenge the second time
Photographing “birds of prey” during an event like PhotoWILD, Carolina Raptor Center, might seem like “shooting sitting ducks” (easy targets), and it may be compared to photographing them in the wild, which I have no experience with, but there’s still a bit of challenge to it as I’m still discovered after two such events.
Unexpected and creative contributions
Yesterday, two friends and fellow bloggers, Paul and Tom and I attended the Photo Wild event at the nearby Carolina Raptor Center. Paul posted a very good synopsis of the event so I won’t rehash words here about the event.
Wisdom grows
“Wisdom tends to grow in proportion to one’s awareness of one’s ignorance.” ~ Anthony de Mello
If so, then I’m well on my way to becoming a very wish man. :-)
Scenes from the morning’s walk: Harbingers of Spring
I’m seeing a lot of signs of spring on my morning walks. It was in the mid-70’s F this past Saturday, although it cooled back down the following day.
Shelter where you go
“If you’re an introvert, you also know that the bias against quiet can cause deep psychic pain. As a child you might have overheard your parents apologize for your shyness. Or at school you might have been prodded to come “out of your shell”— that noxious expression which fails to appreciate that some animals naturally carry shelter everywhere they go, and some humans are just the same.” ~ Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking (via creatingaquietmind)
