    1-1-09 New years day eagles

      What a way to start off the new year! Went to Keystone lake and saw a few eagles in the distance,too far for good pictures.On the way home went down Avery drive because eagles are sighted there alot,and these two were sitting right off the roadway.SCORE!!

     birdseye,at this time I do not have a photo gallery here.Ive been meaning to get one started,but I havent gotten around to it yet.I have several years worth of pictures,starting out with my first serious camera,a canon xti(which I still have as a backup camera).Then I had a canon 40D and now am shooting with a 50D.Photography is a hobby/passion of mine and I shoot mainly birds,wildlife,landscapes,and old barns and houses,which I do these in black and white.Thanks everyone for the nice comments,and hope to get a gallery up soon.

    Re: 1-1-09 New years day eagles

    one thing i noticed is that the eagle to the right has a grayish eye. is this his eye lid?

    Ditto stunning! BTW, how do we upload photos to the gallery, I still can't figure it out?
