The geese were a little confused this morning when they landed on the lake, only to discover that it had developed a thin layer of ice overnight!

Cool picture! :) I live on a lake so I think it's cool to see things like this!

Pulled of of US Route 1 across from the St. Augustine Airport this afternoon to visit a graveyard of old Navy planes...

Wow... I want to say it is a PBY based on the high-wing, high-engine look, but what would one of those be doing in the middle of a desert? (EDIT: Good going moron, there's greenery around it. I blame society.)

Very cool picture. Where exactly is this graveyard? I know of the one in Arizona, out in the Mohave Desert, but I don't think that is where you took the picture.
EDIT: I found the general area on Google Maps. Don't know where to go from here... Linkety

This was taken near the high point of my running route. Just another 5 minutes or so to the top.

I found the general area on Google Maps. Don't know where to go from here...

It's a bit south of there -- between 1st and 2nd street on Avenue A that run exactly parallel to US 1 on the west. Pan down and you can see the planes. By the way -- that block square piece of land is for sale -- so the aircraft probabl will not be there much longer... It's a Grumman SG-2 Tracker.

This is such a great pic! The duck looks panicked and the detail of the ice layer is "slick".

Yep, I think the goose was surprised when he landed and instead of splashing into water, he landed mostly on ice and started sliding! If I'd been using a video camera I could've captured the slide.... Poor thing probably didn't think he'd be able to stop!

One reason I bought this condo is because of the wonderful visual treats we have all year around, with geese, ducks, occasional Great Blue Heron or Night Crowned Heron and other birdies.... I love it here!

I like this. A simple but fascinating composition. Eerie (?) colours.
The only disturbing thing is the artefact (power line pole) in the top centre.

Linkety in case anyone is interested.

Another shot of the mothballed aircraft...

Ah... that makes it easier to tell what kind of aircraft it is. I liked the first shot better. If the wing was still extended in the second it might be a bit more powerful.

This was my first day shooting with a UV filter. I thought this one especially stood out from all the pictures I took today. I impressed myself.
