It has been almost a month since I have posted any pictures. The beginning of April, finally brought use some relief from the snow with warmer temperatures, rain and fog.
On April 4, 2015 I was out for a drive in one of the local parks and noticed this huge bird mingling with the ducks . I really was not sure what it was and as I got closer, it raised its head. At that point I realized it was an eagle and just stopped the car. Due to the weather, I had to handhold the camera with the telephoto lens and try to get the picture from the car. The bird tried to take off a couple of times with its catch, but could not get airborne.
What amazed me is that the remaining ducks with still swimming around no more than 10-15 feet away
The following Saturday, April 11, 2015, Kyle and I went for a trip down the coast with my parents
One thing I love to capture on film is moving water. In order to get the picture that I wanted, I had to handhold the camera and used two circular polarizing filters to get a 1 second exposure in bright sunlight.

Beautiful flowing water image, and an amazing capture of the eagle.
Don't know how I've missed your posts but I must say your eagle shots are wonderful!
