Coyote, Point Reyes National Seashore

This is a photo of a coyote taken at sunset while it was looking in the direction of the camera.

I shot this photo yesterday at my favorite time, sunset.  My goal for the day was to get some shots of bull tule elk now that their antlers are covered in velvet, but I had no luck there.  Saw a number of cow elk in the north end of the ranching area.  I’d love to know how many of the old elk reserve elk have left it now that the Park Service has removed a large portion of the old elk fence.  Saw a few bobcats, but the tall spring vegetation kept them mostly covered.

Bald Eagle, Alaska

This is a photo of a bald eagle landing on a snag on Homer Spit.

I used to love to go to Homer, Alaska, in March to photograph bald eagles.   I wasn’t the only one.  I’m sure more bald eagle photos have been taken in the Homer area than anywhere else in the world.

I looked at this 2008 photo on my website and decided to try to improve it.  I never liked the background.  The photo was taken with a flash and a Better Beamer Flash Extender.  That may have been the problem.

I like this newest version better, but would be interested in any feedback.  TIA.
