Happy Monday!

I have three images for you today that have no relationship with each other.  I captured them last Monday on my Photo Odyssey and I selected them today because they each appeal to me for a different reason.  Remember you can click on the image to reveal a larger more detailed version.  🙂

Of course if you follow this blog for any time at all, you are aware of my love of farm scenes and harvest images.  I went past this old machine shed with all the corn-stalk bales in the field.  It was near the end of the light and I had to make an image.

I also enjoy making image of the great Mississippi River.  This is a section of the river near Mud Lake.  It was here last year that I got a picture of a Fox walking on the ice looking for lunch.  That is the closest I’ve been to a Fox but it is my goal this year to get closer.

Finally I will leave you with this poor (composition wise) image of a Red-Tailed Hawk.  I came over a hill and saw him sitting on the phone poll.  Making sure there were no cars coming (I could see a long way) I got the D4 and my 600 mm lens ready and dove as slow as I could until I could get a photo of him.  A second after this image he took to the air.  As long as a car is passing at normal speed they pay it little attention, but if you slow down they will depart the area in a hurry.  🙂

Only 19 degrees this morning in my little part of the world.  Supposed to get up to 40 so I hope to get some more images today.

Thanks for stopping by the blog.  Enjoy your day and be careful.
