Went out to Circle B early on Saturday morning as I had to be back by 9 am for work, so we took off at 5:45 and arrived around 6:30. Someone just had to stop to get coffee, not me.
I think we both really had one goal in mind and that was to head to the pier on Lake Hancock and try to capture the ospreys crashing into the water, and coming out with a nutritious breakfast. I think for shooting just over an hour we were presented with numerous opportunities and I think we both got many of the shots we were looking for. Just one problem, the fish had decided to swim in the center of the lake (which was very inconsiderate) and so the hunting area was about 300 yards away and even with our long lenses, we really were not able to get close enough to capture what we truly wanted.
So upon returning home and looking through what I had captured, it felt so disappointing to not have anything from the morning. So when you don’t get good photos, what is the next step? Delete……Absolutely not, you try to get creative and take a bad color photograph and make a bad black and white photograph. I got the moments in time I was hoping to capture, just not good enough and so here is where I ended up.
I’m not really too disappointed because its always good to be out with a good friend, photographing and watching the sun rise on another day. And you can always find something to photograph.
and don’t forget the flowers, Mike there were flowers.
