Really beautiful photos, bae. Thanks so much for sharing!
Beautiful pictures! The blue plumage is gorgeous, especially against the water.
We have a heron buddy at the lake whom we've named Bruce. He's also inspired a photo or two, but certainly not of the quality of yours.
This is not about photography, but it is about what marvels the sun will provide. This Iris fulva was orange- red when it lived in the city of St. Louis getting only limited sun.
Here in Hermann In full sun it is a deep red, nearly crimson. Yesterday when I noticed it I screamed!

Edited: oh shoot, this photo is a shade darker than the iris. It really is RED!!!
Okay----Two Things. One, is that that littlebitty town waaay up in the middle o' nowhere just lost it's leading citizen hobbyist landscape photographer! His photos of a very barren area in flyover country were amay-zeen and ahhhh-sum. Yup. Just like that, he's gone. So anyway--item two: Here's a photo I found online, just for you kids. But yeah--I'm not shaming you for your consumeristic ways, by showing this VERY graphic photo of an unsightly eyesore that lowers property values. Nope. So anyway--its a pile of old Mussdangs.

IL, sun is amazing!!!
Wow! Beautiful, IL! What color!!!
Experimenting with a new camera today. It is not at all meant for this sort of photo, nor was the lens I was using. This is a 2359 × 2061 crop from a 11648x8736 image, the bee here just happened to be lurking and I gave it a try.

Went up to the top of Blue Mountain in the Olympic National Park yesterday, ~6000 feet up a "fun" road/trail.
