Remains of the storm. We got more ice than snow. I took this from my door, the ice was just starting to melt. And seeing its a new year I wanted to do more with b&w. So I converted it and played around with it. Not sure if it works ok in b&w. Day 13:365 @sharkbayte

  • On the lookout. Today there were a dozen or so birds in my neighbors yard. All the bird feeders were filled with birds. Then I noticed the cats moving in. This one was very alert to the cats. Day 24:365 @sharkbayte
  • Danboard the baker. Do you want these frosted or unfrosted? Danboard wanted to surprise everyone with brownies tonight. So the next choice was frosted or unfrosted? I never had frosted brownies before but that does sound interesting. Day 23:365 @sharkbayte
  • Just checking out the menu. He just took over this feeder. Not sure what type suet was added as this is my neighbor’s feeder. Day 22:365 @sharkbayte<br /> <br /> thank you for all the comments on my picture yesterday! Update to a question. I just cropped this photo and tweaked the color/contrast. No photoshopping of anything. The background is the trailer behind the feeders. this picture you can see more of the background: <a href="http://sharkbayte.smugmug.com/Animals/Birds/11032758_ZsvgU#1163233225_yMUVs">http://sharkbayte.smugmug.com/Animals/Birds/11032758_ZsvgU#1163233225_yMUVs</a>
  • Bold and brazen at that. He didn't care I was eight or so feet him. he wasn't moving. So I put the camera to my face and shot this. Then he turned around I got another shot and then he took off to the tree which was behind him. I proceeded up my ramp, as I was going into my door I wanted to make sure he wasn't close by so Jasper wouldn't give chase. The squirrel was about my head about 4 feet away, not a care in the world. I was just happy that Jasper wasn't paying attention to anything other than his toy. Day 21:365 @sharkbayte
  • Full Wolf Moon - or January's Full Moon. I was hoping to find out why I don't seem to capture as many details in a full moon shot versus a half moon or even a quarter moon shot. I'll try again next full moon. Day 20:365 @sharkbayte
  • White Amaryllis, my neighbor called me over to check out her new plants she had gotten. I don't have a lot of flower photography skills, and had a hard time trying to figure out what to do with this one. Especially, I shouldn't be talking as I am holding the camera and snapping away. Day 19:365 (2011.01.19) @sharkbayte<br /> <br /> Not sure what is happening with these pics. but I was able to replace it and now its normal size.
  • Together at last. Long lost brothers, Walter T Duck and his brother Wally T Duck, meet again after many years apart. Both photographers, are seen here catching up after a big meal. I ended up going to bed leaving them to chat. They were quacking me and the gang up with their antics and stories. Day 18:365 (2011.01.18) @sharkbayte<br /> <br /> Thanks for all the comments on my baby pic and my Downy woodpecker. The childhood picture challenge was a lot of fun, it was great to see everyone's pictures! Lot's of memories for everyone! Glad I was able to participate.
  • Bird Chase. I had a hard time trying to capture a shot of this gal. Either she was in between branches, or had her back to me. When I finally would focus on her, she would fly off. Finally caught up with her! I really need to figure out how to get more speed chasing these guys tree to tree and then yard to yard. Perhaps that is why Willie has an attitude all the time. He's tired!? Day 17:365 (2011.01.17)
  • Willie
  • These two bucks were in the yard today, together at the same time! The smaller deer hidden behind the older male is a button-buck. The button-buck is always here with his mother and a several other does. They were out of frame for this shot. It was nice to see the "New Family" for the first time. Day 15:365 @sharkbayte #365Project
  • Waxing Gibbous-Nine day old moon. 62% visible. I took this last night on the deck, I still can't get down the ramp because of the ice. Maybe today the rest of the ice will melt. Day 14:365 @sharkbayte #365Project<br /> <br /> I am not sure what happened with the upload as it looks very tiny on my screen as soon as I can get to the computer where this is stored I can see what has happened. It shouldn't be this small. Thanks for all the comments on my pictures. I have been trying to comment on everyone's photos but the past few days, I haven't been feeling too well. So if I don't seem to be as active it's just my body trying to recharge.
  • Remains of the storm. We got more ice than snow. I took this from my door, the ice was just starting to melt. And seeing its a new year I wanted to do more with b&amp;w. So I converted it and played around with it. Not sure if it works ok in b&amp;w. Day 13:365 @sharkbayte
  • With a little help from his friends. Almost anything is possible with a little support or help from friends. Although Suzuki seems a tad crazy because Danboard is hesitant. That's okay they are like Yin and Yang. Day 12:365 @sharkbayte
  • The Jump. You want me to jump down to there? I am guessing Danboard is scared of heights...Day 11:365 #365Project @sharkbayte
  • Snow and Sleet? A Wintry mix was predicted for today. It started very late for us. Just hope we don't get ice on the powerlines. Day 10/365 @sharkbayte
  • Those eyes and boy does Pearlie Mae knows how to use them. Her owner is very well trained by Pearlie. She and Jasper are best of friends. Day 09/365
  • Stand back boys...it's all mine! Pierre trying to take away the bone the three of them just found. Wait till Jasper sees this one! Day 08 (2011.01.08)
  • A Mother's Love. I just love watching the interaction between the deer. This doe was cleaning one of her fawns. The other fawn was out of frame. He was cleaned shortly after she finished this one. The deer roam in our yards like a cat or dog would. So when I say they sleep in my yard, maybe I should say I live in their yard. As the woods are very thick in the park. The only thing I miss is open sky. Day 7 (2011.01.07) #365Project @sharkbayte
  • Caught in the act!! Wrong lens, wrong settings you name it. I came inside after trying to find something to shoot. I still had the camera on and caught Mr. Jasper on the furniture. I asked him was he supposed to be on that chair. This is the look I got. He promptly got off the chair. #365Project Day 6 (2011.01.06) @sharkbayte<br /> <br /> Thanks for all the kind and wonderful comments on my neighbors cat yesterday. That cat cracks me up, she is always into something.
  • Nap Time! This is Allison, my neighbor’s cat. I guess she fell asleep waiting to catch some birds while they were eating at the feeders. #365Project Day 05 (2011.01.05) @sharkbayte<br /> <br /> **Update-I should had mentioned the cat was sleeping, prior to this shot. I called it and after a couple of seconds, this is the look I got and then she stretched and came down from the tree. She was groggy in this frame.

    B&W with this comp works for me! The ice sure was beautiful yesterday when the sun hit it. It was like the world became one huge Swarski crystal.

    Excellent conversion, even when I imagine that the original must have been near B/W
