There is a couple at the club that have won every contest they’ve entered.  Their specialty? Birds. 

Now, they are the sweetest couple of people you’d ever want to meet.  Both of them high tech specialists.  Amazing how they seem to love shooting birds.  They’re not the only ones.  There is a group at the club that are bird-shooters.  Period.  They fly off to the Florida wetlands and bird sanctuaries and line up with all the hundreds of other bird shooters to catch the darlings as they preen and hunt. 

I watch in awe.

Now, I like birds as much as the next person and I know the difficulty in shooting the darlings but I have no interest in shooting birds.  First of all, I don’t have the equipment to do a good job.  Secondly, I don’t have the interest. 

So, it never fails.  You just can’t win if you’re up against a bird entry.  So, I’m pissed off.

Oh, I should lighten up.  I won 2nd prize and 3rd prize.  OK, but I want first for once.

    Did you also do the wonderful photos of Salzberg?

    P.S. I can’t find a real “About” with pertinent facts and how to purchase photos.

    Thank you for your kind comments.
    I’m located in Mississauga Ontario, Canada. Yes, I took all the pictures you see with the exception of the ones I’m in.
    You’re right, I had said I’d work on the site so you may order photos. I just haven’t had time. Let me know which one(s) you’re interested in and I’ll work something out for you. I’ll have the site ready for ordering, between Christmas and New Years while I’m on vacation from my other job.
