I was in the park for a walk and it was a wildlife kind of day, from time to time.

Man. I'm disappointing a lot of people here.

And I try so hard to meet everyone's expectations.

Tess finally figured out how to get rid of the blue tint, caused by being in shadow, but it will never get to these images. They're already posted. Never look back. But then there's the whole "is it the way it was", because it was blue because it was in shadow, or should it be "the way I saw it", because it looked black when I was there. So which is the "correct" way? The camera doesn't always see as we do.

It's all so complicated.

Thanks for your comment.

"The camera doesn't always see as we do"

Mine does, I have given her precise instructions with a precise set of rules and now she is very sensorble and does what I want.

In Alberta our Raven are jet-black, I had forgotten about the ones in Ontario, but wait, Rob must have done that
Seriously, I like the pictures especially the Moose.

DA* 55-300 ??

I thought it was supposed to be "Moose and Squirrel".
Good job as usual, though.

Bill Shakespeare wrote a play about taming a small mammal called a shrew, I tried applying his techniques to my spouse, but it turned out to be rather unsuccessful.

I'm wondering how much the post processing software has to do with this particular problem; I don't get blues in my fading light pictures, but I find that I lose contrast in my Lightroom processed photos, even though my eyes see the effects of long shadows and the glow of a setting sun.

I was trying to remember what that play was called... when I did I had the urge to repeatedly bang my head into my desk.

Great, I shall wear this moniker with pride and appreciation and try to remember who coined it.

The problem is it looked back, when you weren't looking. ) Wonderful series, Norm. Thanks so much for uploading.
