Welcome back to Darlene! As you can see we are barely hanging on, primarily because of Dave, MFI and Rich... However, I did just renew the domain for another year so we will trundle on.
Here is a mill that we visited on our Mississippi River cruise. Converted to B&W and used an Infrared filter to make it a bit more interesting, at least to me.
We also saw many, many bald eagles but with my P&S I couldn't really get any good shots. I played with image a bit and tried to make the eagle stand out from the background.

Oh cool! I will have to make sure I log in more often. I put it in my Finch app to log in at least once a month.
Speaking of birds, here are some purple martins I saw in Ohio at Magee Marsh.

Nice bird shots and I like that old mill, Don.
Here's a shot I took last year in Connecticut of a lovely windmill.
Welcome back, Darlene!

Good work, folks.
Don, the mill shot is great, and you sure got the most out of the eagle photo.
Darlene, good job with the exposure and you captured a nice bit of avian action.
Hi Quint. That is a lovely little windmill that you captured so well.

Don, Lots of interest in this photo. Infrared look and the dam plus the perspective of the water and trees. And of course the mill.
Good job on the eagle showing the speed!
Welcome back Darlene! Good bird shot, wonder what they were saying?
Quint, wonderful windmill photo! Good composition and interest with the shadows!
Greetings Dave!
