Owls from Nature Visions

Most years, we attend the Nature Visions conference in Manassas VA to listen to lectures and learn about nature photography.  I saw lectures about impressionistic photography and hands on flower photos.  I also attended a workshop to photograph injured owls.  Tom Till was the keynote speaker sharing photos of America's Southwest (beautiful).

Here are a few owl pictures for you to enjoy.

Autumn Reflections

I spent an afternoon photographing fall leaves in St. Mary's County.  I love reflections of leaves in water.

My sister has a cat door to her basement.  Sarita had to try it out.
