I finally made it to the big leagues, heading out to Memphis, Tn to shoot the Mancup (#1 Professional Drag Bike Event). And I get to stop on the way there to shoot Smokey Robinson in concert. It's been a good week!
I came across these 3 very strange looking duck/geese. Turns out they are Egyptian Geese that have somehow ventured out in the wild. They are Native to Africa, but there are reports of them in TX, Fl, NY and now CT. The birding community didn't seem to care as they are considered domestics.. Still a cool looking critter. The three of them have been hanging out in one of my Osprey spots for 5 days now.. 7dm2, 500 F4 IS
One of Rome's oldest churches, Santa Maria is one of Rome's oldest churches. It is built on the hightest point of the Capital, just a stone's throw from the Palatine. One of it's columns reads, "From the Bedrooms of the Emporers".
Stopped in Oslo to sleep in a hotel prior to our flight to Orlando, Florida tomorrow, went and visited Akershus Fortress as wife hadn't actually been there before. (And just to repeat myself if I've ever told it before, if you come to Norway as a tourist, don't stay too long in Oslo and the areas around it. It isn't that is ugly or anything, but it really isn't anything special, go anywhere else in Norway to see amazing views) 5 shots merged with Lightroom CC - Nikon D810 - Sigma art 50

I consider this shot a mistake. I would have liked more depth of field, but it was quite dark in there. However, a simple fix would have been to push the table back a foot. Then the entire table would have been in focus. Despite the annoying distraction of the teacup being out of focus, I still like the shot.
