Ive posted some paintings on here a while back and kind of got away from that. Anyway here's a couple Thanks for asking and your kind words TTTreasureTales said:Wildlife art? That's even better than cartoons, IMO. I'd love to see your wildlife art. There are paintings and prints of waterfowl and American big game animals all over my cluttered house. Never get tired of looking at wildlife.
So now we know why you take such good wildlife photos - scrap.
Very possible on the Eagle,but the camera I was using that day doesn't show enough detail. Here's a picture I took last year that I might use someday. Thanks again TT.TreasureTales said:Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. My favorite being the Black-capped Chickadee. So someday soon you'll be painting a Bald Eagle with wings spread wide? Thanks VanGone, very nice. ("Scrap" is the term for the photo that inspires a painting, not meant as a derision)
Thank you,and they are my favorite also.ajpaulison said:Very cool pics!! Eagles are my favorite!!
Thanks MiniMe,you are correct they are really something. The one looking down had his eye on me as I tried to get close.MiniMe said:They are so beautiful....my favorite...I love the last picture...like he's looking down on us...and the one in flight....freedom. Great picts thanks for sharing.
Thank you Noodle, In Iowa when it gets real cold and the river freezes up they hang around dams that have large trees on the bank that they can perch on and watch the river. I don't know how good there vision is,but they watch and then seem to go out and try to catch a fish. I see them hit the water and come up with a fish,and then take it back to the trees and eat it. What I find interesting is how they can balance on these tiny branches in the tree tops. Very cool birds to say the least.Noodle said:Van, those are gorgeous! To be able to photograph something wild in the wild is impressive! I love the mama and baby. To watch them incubate and hatch and raise their young on the wild cams is wonderful, but can be heartbreaking, too, when nature takes over. You have some WONDERFUL shots! Thank you for sharing!
