Eagle in flight

This picture is a pretty tight crop from my 200mm lens, so it's not going to be blown up to poster size anytime soon, but I'm still pretty happy with how it came out. It (and the previous one) are my first eagle in flight shots, so I'm pretty excited. It'll have to do until I get a longer lens or until I get lucky and have one do a close fly-by.

Stress

For the group Literary Reference in Pictures Stress A definition, friends, of stress: Your own reaction to a mess Stresses may be large or small Sometimes they're not perceived at all Examples: Say a lack of cash; A just-avoided freeway crash; An allergen that's in the air; The barber says you're losing hair; Fifty on a spavined horse; Attorney's letter re divorce; Wetness, dryness, heat or cold; Callow youth or getting old Stress from pains to pleasures range The common element is change Adapt or die, and that's a fact And so our bodies must react: The heart speeds up, the gut slows down Facial muscles snarl or frown Bronchial tubes expand and then The blood absorbs more oxygen Widened pupils search the void Adrenal glands secrete steroid Serum glucose starts to climb More insulin works overtime Stressed physically or mentally Muscles tense to fight or flee The midbrain boils with rage and fear While cortex plans to save your rear The point is, stress is not unique It doesn't mean you're dumb or weak A part of mankind's constitution Bequeathed to us by evolution Common both to man and beast It proves you're still alive, at least.

Black Eagle at Nagpur

Image by Tarique Sani
This picture may not have much aesthetic merit but I am pleased that I could manage it! Black Eagle is a rarity in Nagpur. This picture is full frame and was taken at 1000mm handheld with 400iso at 1/50sec with subject at a distance of 21m, in retrospect I can easily say I could have done it much better but there was a higher possibility that I would not have got a shot at all!!

This picture was taken at the McNeil Avian Center at the Philadelphia Zoo. There is nothing special about this picture except I like the exposure and sharpness of the focus

Staying Warm

Image by Big Grey Mare ~ Almost, but not quite caught up!
I took this picture last winter. Do you remember how cold it was back then, and how you had to puff up to stay warm, and how it seemed summer would never come?
