I was one of the people who originally came over with this group. Actually met friend who I still communicate with through it.
Congrats to all and can't believe it's been 500 challenges.
Isolated this feeder by taking the photo in portrait mode on the iPhone (nice blur in background) and using a little radial filter in Camera Raw in Photoshop.
View from the deck of our rowboat, Coco taken at dawn at Milton Harbor in Rye, New York. Blue water is serene as can be with white fluffy clouds and sunbeams. There are boats in the background as well as green and autumn foliage colored trees. Two seagulls can be seen in the distance. Milton Harbor is an inlet of Long Island Sound which is an inlet of the Atlantic Ocean.
Old rusted paint can with used brushes sitting on top of a rowboat at City Island, Bronx, New York. The boat and can have been there for years. Peeling blue paint exposes the bottom of the wooden boat and the can is rusted to a strong color through exposure to the elements.
City Island is an oasis not far from Manhattan connected by one bridge. It is a hot spot for boaters from the surrounding New York, Connecticut and New Jersey.
White egret at rest standing on a fence at Milton Harbor, Blind Brook in Rye, New York. The egret's white form stands out beautifully against the lush green foliage, blue sky and weathered brown fence. This photograph was taken from the deck of my rowboat in summer. The creatures in this area became adjusted to my presence because they knew I meant them no harm.
Leaving Milton Harbor at dawn in Rye, New York on our boat. The sun was rising and the water was as smooth as glass as we were the first ones out. Sailboats reflect the sun and are a variety of lovely New England boat shapes.
