Got lucky that, while visiting River Walk Park in Jacksonville, North Carolina, there was a fairly decent sized alligator that kept swimming back and forth for quite a while. I managed to get several fairly decent shots. This one was one of my favorites.
Google wisdom says: “While it is technically possible to adapt the Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 S.S.C. to a modern camera body, it is highly impractical and rarely recommended for street photography.
This was originally a shot with my Hasselblad of a bright blue shy and a very white cloud plus some trees. I had to shoot higher in order to avoid acrs and people.
While wandering through a junk yard in Mérida, Mexico, I found this unique composition of a used ... ?
I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.

Nice catch. You ever go to Alligator River Kyle? There is a 12 footer that hangs out on the canals between the pond and Milltail on Long Curve. I have a 5 day Pettigrew/Pungo trip planned in the new few weeks. There has been a few sightings of the wolves at Pungo recently. I'm hoping the beans are coming up, if so, bears everywhere.
Thanks! I haven't been around the Alligator River for photography. I would love to do a photo trip to the Pungo and the ARNWR and that whole area. The only time I've been to the alligator river is when I'm crossing it on 64.
It's about time for the beans to start growing. Bears will start moving during the day. I'm hoping to catch it at the right time.
Cool. I’ve always wanted to photograph the wildlife out there.
