The weather is holding... for now

When I woke up this morning, I was expecting it to be another nasty, rainy weekend, ruining any possibilities for photographing scenery. To my surprise, it wasn't half bad out today! When I started out this morning, the sky was changing from patchy clouds to a solid grey sky. Could the weatherman be right? Is it going to rain all weekend? Fortunately, not. The clouds started to break and the sun came streaming in. While I was out on a trail, I spotted a white tail sprinting through the woods in the distance. I swapped out my lens to my big boy (which is actually not a very long lens) but, Bambi was gone.

I continued on with my telephoto lens attached for a while, clicking away at the scenery. For the first time this year, I spotted the 2 hawks that call Mohegan Park home in the winter months (at least, that's the only time I spot them), circling overhead. Couldn't get a clear shot at them though, trees in the way. When I got back around to the pond, I could see the Osprey just coming up from the water. Missed it by a few minutes. Such is life. Just didn't have the right timing today.

As I type this silly little blog out, I'm transfering my images to my hard drive. Hopefully, there are a handfull of keepers somewhere in there that I can share with all of you... well at least the 1 or 2 people actually reading this. Well, I'm off to find more inspiration on the web. More to follow (Hopefully).
