    Great Horned Owl in Phoenix, Az.

    I didn't take the attached photo, it was one of many an old neighborhood friend growing up took of a visiting owl to his backyard in Phoenix, Az. He moved to the S/W after living in the foggy and windy area of South San Francisco. What a shock it must have been the first summer in Phoenix...

    Bumble Bee

    I think macro shooting would be a lot of fun and add some variety to your photography. A whole new miniature world is out there with a multitude of fascinating creatures to take pictures of. I looked sparingly into getting a Canon Macro lens and at the time the 100mm f/2.8 was mentioned a lot...

    Wildlife of Edmonds, WA. 2018

    Fantastic variety of wildlife Bill. Looks like the 1DX is working well, the sharpness the combination of camera and lenses produced outstanding results.

    Beautiful shots Bill. The talons are perfect for catching fish.

    Nice photos Bill. The Cedar Waxwing is striking, I don't recall ever seeing one down here, but I haven't really looked either. Now I will pay attention since a bird reference I have indicates they range here. I wonder if I put out chopped apples or raisins that would attract them as the book...

    Bill, is this the same Wesley you have been taking photos of for 2 or 3 years now?

    Orion Nebula

    Hello Bob, Many cameras do have some form of internal noise reduction, if it's to reduce read noise then that is the same purpose of taking bias frames in astrophotography. However, in astrophotography, it is recommended that all camera functions like noise reduction, dust elimination, image...

    White Egret

    I decided to reduce the size of the White Egret photo in Paint. The original Jpg was bordering on pixelating in my opinion so I shrunk it down and reposted as a png. It was nice to see the website accepted the file and also allowed me to edit it later. I think I could have gone smaller, but I...

    White Egret

    Thanks Bill. I took another "lucky" photo about three years ago of a Great Blue Heron that I wish I could find. I happened to be walking around a creek area that eventually flows by the nesting tree when I spotted the bird hunting nearby. Since he was in the aforementioned senior community...

    White Egret

    Here is a "lucky" photo I took of a White Egret preparing to land in a large tree a couple miles from where I live. Actually, the tree is a well-known nesting spot for both White Egrets and Great Blue Herons. I would estimate there are about 15 nesting pairs and the tree is located in a large...

    Orion Nebula

    Here is a multiple long exposure image of the Orion Nebula accompanying on the left side by the Running Man Nebula. I took this over a year ago from my backyard and from what I recall it was composed of approximately 24-30 sub-exposures ranging from 15 seconds to 3+ minutes. The maximum...

    Great variety of species in your photographs Bill. I learn a little each time I log on and I like seeing them in a natural setting.

    John from Northern California

    Hello everybody, I didn't want to poach onto a regional website, but photography is universal in my book! My experience with the hobby was virtually non-existent until around three years ago I became interested in astrophotography. Prior to that my camera equipment consisted of a Canon point...

    I figured I'd better register on this website so I can admire and extend positive comments. Thanks for posting pics of your iconic Killer Whales. This site will also serve as another source for learning wildlife photography. BTW Bill, the Avatar I posted is an acrylic piece painted by my...
