The best yet !! Boat tour with Daisey's Island Cruises and Captain Ayden and Katie. Saw dolphins (hard to photograph), eagles, osprey, pelicans, and the of course the horses.

Ayden and Katie knew where to go to get the best pictures, had great knowledge of the island, and made it a wonderful trip.

Sometimes you just get lucky. Caught this earlier in the year. It was a little misty and hazy that day and didn't think much would come of it. Quick conversion to Black and White.

While sitting on the sand at Tom's Cove one late afternoon, this little guy was very slowly working his way across the sand. No clue what it is. All I had with me was the 150-600 Sigma and no tripod. I am still impressed at the close focus of this lens.

Great sunset cruise tour with Daisey's Island Cruises and Captain Nate. Saw the famous horses, eagles (and many other birds) and a great sunset.

The wind was really blowing to start and the boat was really rocking. I bumped the shutter speed up as high as I could get it and tried to lock on the eye. First time I think I have shot with 1/8000 of second.
