Nature Photography is not for Lazy People

Which is probably why I'll never be a Nature Photographer. Also, I did have my feet in a heated pool surrounded by roses and palm trees and I was sipping a cappuccino in Florida when I took these photos. Would you have gotten up to change your lens? I swear, under normal circumstances I would not have been so lazy.



Ospreys!!!



I really like the position of the osprey in the first shot, but the composition is just embarrassing. I promise I've learned my lesson though. Next time I spot an osprey I'll grab a longer lens and drop the cappuccino.

  1. I seem to remember it was grapefruit juice actually . . . but yeah, I didn't change my lens either. We were having way too much fun.

    PS Your email posts aren't coming. Don't know what's up with that.

  2. I like the position of the osprey in the first one too. That was the most fabulous way to observe osprey! I love Florida!

  3. are there ospreys in Washington state? I once saw one on a lake that was near where Emily and Rob got married. Love seeing your photos by the way. And your comments.

  4. Martha, apparently there are ospreys in Washington! According to BirdWeb they are 'fairly common' in the Okanogan valley from April to Sept. I'll keep my eyes and my lens open!

    I love your comments! Thanks for reading.

    And Jessica, apparently no one has been getting those emails. Gosh darn. It's on my to-do list, but do you have any ideas why it wouldn't work? I get the emails for your blog.
