Goodluck
Nice shot, nice smile. Best wishes and I hope all is well ... you know, hospitals and such.

Poor Mrs MacRy can't even escape when she goes into hospital for some steroid injections....

Thank you. Coming from you, that feedback means a lot. There's still more to come, and I'll be curious to see if you or anyone else has anything to add.
Yes, there is tons of good stuff in Toronto Zoo. I can't really recommend it to visitors though, because it's so huge, you have to explore it in multiple takes. I had an annual pass and used it about a dozen times at one point. We have a pair of pandas over right now, but I have yet to check them out. Might do it soon, it's a wonderfully serene place in the winter.
Thanks Barry. All is well. She had some injections in her back to help rid her of disc pain.
I wouldn't not recommend it because it's big. I visited about 5 years ago while on honeymoon, managed to get round a fair bit of the Zoo in a day and it was a lovely day out. If you like zoos and walking it's great. Sadly I think they were in the middle of redeveloping at the time so didn't see any snow leopards.
I guess what I meant to say, it's so big, you will not be able to fully appreciate it in a single visit. Also, because it's so big, they are always redeveloping one part or another. Snow leopard used to be right beside the Japanese macaques, though I'm not sure if it's there now with all the changes they have had since last time I visited.
Another one of my personal favourites, Przewalskis horses.

Continuing the Newport Beach series.
Another one in the same vein as the previous one. Lone figure in the sunset.

Spent Thanksgiving morning exploring an abandoned factory. Here is one of my favorites.

I imagine living somewhere like that. Is that the natural lighting with the dark background or PP?

At the sandcastle competition/exhibition at the local beach, this is a display one to show school-kids how they do it.

Natural light. I just stand around, on a day like this, when there's a 'part-cloudy' sky, and wait for something to be lit and something else to fall into shadow...
After the sun went down, I switched over to long exposures. The Newport Beach sunset series continues...

And here is one more from the zoo. This pretty much sums up how I feel this morning. Gotta preserve energy because tomorrow the local ski season is opening up at Blue Mountains. It's just a bunny hill compared to the Rockies or the Alps, but I'll take what I can.

Your series of California beach sunsets reminds me of this photo I took a year or so ago at Coronado BeachContinuing the Newport Beach series.

First time posting
Hi all, first time posting in this thread. Hopefully I don't get booed out of the building with my pics. I took this shot when my wife and I were on our honeymoon in Italy in September. We were on a short boat cruise along Cinque Terre and on the way back to shore I saw a couple moving in for a kiss.
You guys have posted some really awesome shots. Any feedback you have would be appreciated!

I probably would have cropped a bit more off the camera right side but other than that. it's a really nice pic. One of those things that appeal to me on the card rack at Hallmark. Nice colors. The tone fade from right to left is a nice touch. Thank Nature for that. In my experience, most of photography is made up of waiting for Nature to give us something to shoot.

Very nice. We do get the best sunsets here in Cali. hehe.
I need to get down to Coronado one of these days. It's only a couple of hours away for me.
