I'll bet that woodpecker would like to go to Florida with you Charlie.

Very nice work, Charlie! The bokeh and focus are really spot-on beautiful!

**Cee Cee** · 02-17-2013, 06:08 PM

cheers

Not exactly balmy here today, Cap'n (though doubtless warmer than Saugus), but the weather folk tell us a warmup is coming this week. Hope you have a great trip!

We just got back from the Orlando area Friday. We awoke to snow flurries. I am ready to go back to Florida myself
Nice shot Charlie

Nice capture Charlie. Hope you are going far enough south in Florida. We just got back and it was cold in the central section.

I'm looking forward to Fl.It's a shame that I'm leaving my Bigma at home but on the other hand I don't want to be a slave to the camera.--charliezap

Forecast for Miami, for the next week, highs in the low 80s, partly cloudy. Enjoy!

Hey Charlie - I like birds and love this shot of the Red-bellied Woodpecker. I keep looking at the branch in the background though - it reminds of a broken Gordy's wrist strap - do you think? Have a good time in Florida.

Nice shot, Capn - not long until you enjoy the warm of FL.
