Shot Notes

UNC has a small botanical garden called the Coker Arboretum. We spent out first day there, just generally having a look around at the variety of flora they have there.

I’ve got quite a few more shots of flowers, but here’s one of some of the local wildlife. I’m not a huge bird photographer – don’t have the patience for it – but these guys were very tame and would quite happily come to within about 15 feet – easy prey for the 100-400.

I think these are seaside sparrows, given away by the distinctive yellow above the eyes. Anyone want to correct me?

    Very nice. I use your theme on both my main site and photoblog. I am just getting started with my business and the theme really highlights my work the way I want it to. good work. I also love that it captures the EXIF data because before I was manually typing it in, very tedious let me tell you! A great theme.

    On this photo, you captured the detail of the bird beautifully. I can tell by looking at the feet and the level of detail I can see in them.
