The flowers are in bloom..........the sun is out longer..............the animals are running wild!!! Everything about spring puts me in a good mood!!! :D

Now I can't wait for summer and the beach!!!!

Very nice shots....I really like the first
I am not sure how much is talent and how much is lense but when you have them both this is what you get....great work!

I really dig that shallow DOF in the first 3 pics. Is this your 85mm?

The 4th pic shows great DOF - I love how a tele compresses things together. Where is this at?

I love spring, but I get bouts of sneezing and red eyes for the first couple of weeks. Wish I didn't have this allergy to pollen.

Ah ok, I know that park. You captured it beautifully. I also read about that J&R - Nikon Promo and thought about bringing my Canons too, but they might mess it up :)

My two faves are the squirrel shot (Though I feel it would improve if cropped tighter) and the last one, of the flowers
