New Photo Discussions
New Photo Discussion 1: Pinnacles of Fall
- Nancyj Hovey See Nancyj's Basic BetterPholio™ Response 1:Hi Nancy, thanks for your comments. Glad I could bring back good memories.

Great capture! - Jane Holestine See Jane's Basic BetterPholio™ Visit janeholestinephotography.com - Jane's Deluxe BetterPholio™ Response 2:Thanks guys! I had people laughing at me as I'm squatting down on the grass, low as I could get - to get the right reflections. I said, "Hey, anything for the shot" :) AND I was in a cherry pinup long dress too :) Good thing I had a crinoline on under it :) - Jillian Danielson See Jillian's Basic BetterPholio™ Read this discussion online Respond to this discussion | |

Happy Shooting | |
New Photo Discussion 5: Snow Geese Migration
- Cindy Bendush See Cindy's Basic BetterPholio™ Response 1:Thanks so much, Cindy! This was taken at Merrill Creek Reservoir, in NJ. Every year there are usually tens of thousands of snow geese that stop there during the winter. There's an eagle nest in the area, and when they all take off like this, an eagle probably spooked them. Debby | |
