I’ve been driving myself crazy in terms of taking pictures, and although my little handy elph is great for some things, I want more functionality and the ability to take wildlife photographs - and take great detailed pictures from a distance. Theoretically, this would bring me into the realm I’ve always dreamed of: taking pictures, and turning the subjects into paintings.

With technology and digital cameras advancing so quickly, it is now possible to get the kind of magnification you would get with a $5,000 telephoto lens - with a digital camera.

I’m looking forward to entering that universe.

White egrets and a heron, fishing.

I can only imagine what kind of shots I could have taken of these birds, given the opportunity to take closer shots without physically having to move.

Which reminds me…I will also get the opportunity of getting some close ups of my favorite red-tailed hawks, and numerous others.

C’mon and trackback! Put up a post that you think deserves some special attention from this past week.

Watch for Open Trackbacks here on Fridays, Sundays and Wednesdays.

Here’s the link:

Here is the trackback link to this post:

To trackback to any post just use the post slug or “permalink” and add trackback/ to the end of it.

One other thing.

I will be deleting trackbacks when the posts don’t show that you’ve linked here. Make sure you do as I did, below–either saying thanks to Cao’s blog and linking to this post, or mention that I have a trackback party, and link to this post. Otherwise the trackback will be deleted.

If you are unable to send trackbacks, then use the Wizbang Standalone Trackback Pinger.
