New Blog Thoughts
Since I have not posted in a while I am starting over again. It will be mostly about outdoor photography and all things related.
Most recently I was in Las Vegas for the Shot Show and came upon a Couch's Kingbird. It had recently arrived there and was the first recorded sighting ever in the state. This is a bird from south Texas and the eastern side of central america. Beautiful specie and fortunate sighting for me.
There is a lot to do there outside of casinos and indoor entertainment.
Happy shooting.

Also, I got to spend some time in the dunes just Northeast of Vegas. The late light was sculpting everything in sight, a photographers dream.

Shrinking Roseate Spoonbill Population Spurs Action

Gem of Summer
Finally, back on track.
Yesterday I headed out to shoot an orchid that has eluded me for years ( see "Should've Been Here Yesterday".) Yes, I got it thanks to a helpful friend. But more importantly, I put one more image On A Roll, the first image since September 2012 and the 20th image since starting in December of 2011. I have also expanded this roll to include the entire state instead of only Madison County.
In the heat and humidity of Mississippi in July I found a gem. It was all worth it.
