Your pix are absolutely amazing, man!

Much appreciated. It's just a hobby.

I'd love to have some of these made into framed prints about 2'x3'. Wow.

Nice pics Matt
Here's an old one of a barred owl, not as clear as I'd like but I was ducking and trying to snap a pic at the same time.

You ever think about submitting to Nat Geo? I've been reading it monthly for well over 50 years. They have a section anyone can submit photos to.

I second that Nat Geo advice. Those pictures are fantastic quality and composition.

Good idea Moss. These photo's are pretty darn good.

 

[snymat68]

Never thought about it. Always figured publications like that are getting bombarded with photos much better than mine all the time.

As I recall, you submit, viewers choose. Anyhow, I think yours are very good combination of light, perspective, composition and story. Go for it. :thumbsup:

On another note....

Not to hard to imagine what a dinosaur looked like back in the good ole days.

Years ago I planted this Japanese maple near the house. Always thought it was pretty.

Looks good fuddy, my wife loves those maples. This one looks a little fuller than ours, but they do give great fall color.

I didn't think they got that big. Nice color.
