Summer finally decided to appear in Washington. Saturday and Sunday were gorgeous, and I finally decided to grab my gear and get my butt to the lake. I had hoped I’d get the eagle shot I’ve been wanting, but no luck. If you recall over the winter I got the big white zoom lens. So, I put it to use!
First stop, the PX parking lot. Mt Rainier doesn’t show itself all that often, and finally after three years I got a good shot of it.
Not an eagle, but I think crows are pretty neat. My husband disagrees, but they have character!
And a Canada Goose, fussing at it’s feathers.
I forgot how relaxing it can be just to walk around with a camera. You tend to see things differently, like they’re in a frame. My oldest has picked up the bug too. I must admit that makes me pretty happy. I took her with me yesterday, along with her friend. Oh my goodness the craziness that comes with two teenage girls. I set her up with my smaller camera, the one I used until I got my DSLR. It’s an 8mp Canon powershot. And I installed Photoshop CS4 for her. Makes me glad I invested in it, since with two of us we’ll definitely get our money’s worth.
Hopefully Summer sticks around. When the Hubby gets home, I’m anxious to get out there again. This is our last summer here, and I’d like to revisit the shore, and the zoos, and get some good parting shots.
I Love Summer.















Those are beautiful Jess! /jealous
