Very cool shots Doug, these would make very nice sculptures.

Check out Grainger McKoy's work. I've seen his exhibit, incredible is an understatement.

Amazing! What a lot of mouths to feed. That first one does look like a sculpture, doesn't it! Well done!

Brag post...

I re-edited this photo and submitted it into this year's Friends of Black Bayou Lake National Wildlife Refuge photo contest.

I liked its chances of placing in the "Birds" category, but wasn't sure since that category is usually dominated by egrets and herons.

To my surprise, I found out last night that the image won "Best in Show"!
