I was nominated by a fellow blogger, Project Relish, for a 7-Day Nature Photo Challenge.
So for the next week, let’s see, if I can come up with some interesting nature images and pass the challenge onto some of my fellow bloggers.
This lovely specimen was sitting next to a pond at the College of Simon’s Rock on a fine August weekend, as my wife and I dropped of the daughter for her start of the school year. He was kind enough to let me sneak up on him, as I was hanging over the edge of the pond, to get a nice view of him.
The peaceful nature, with which he sat there, as if he didn’t have a care in the world, made for a wonderful moment.
Technical Details
This image was captured with my old Canon EOS 1D Mk II and 24-105 f/4L lens. Exposure settings were f/9 at 1/40 second at ISO 400.
The Rules
Post a #naturephoto every day and nominate another blogger for this challenge.
Nomination
The challenge of nominating a fellow blogger… RobDPhotographer has a blog full of amazing photography, which you should visit! I hope he accepts the nomination for the challenge.
Such a green little fellow! 🙂
He enjoyed being photographed 🙂
Fantastic! I did this 7-day nature challenge few weeks ago on Facebook too. I didn’t have such a cute model though.;)
It was quite a casting call to get this model; his agent was a blue heron, which made me wonder, if he would really show up.
