I recently purchased a Canon D20 with a stabilized telephoto and wide angle lens. Wrightwood has been helping me get started and after over a thousand photos, I see why getting a great shot is so difficult.
This is a sunset on Table Mountain Campground.
These are a family of quail that visit our pond. These are the teenage group....we have several more coveys that have the smaller guys. Notice the sentinals above.
The quail family was feeding in the undergrowth behind the house. I didn't see them at first. Camo quail.
If my book is correct, this is a Scott's Oriole visiting the hummingbird feeder. Only saw it once.
Finally, this is our cat sitting on a ladder I placed to go up on the roof for something. I have no idea why the eyes came out like that but it looks like you can see the rods and cones that make them such good night hunters.
Those are only photos that would consider sharing at this point. Learning photography has been a much greater challenge then I anticipated. Having a digital system means I can experiment until I figure things out.
