Prothonotary Warbler Lake Martin
Photo of the Week 2016-01-4
This week's photo is of a Prothonotary Warbler. This beautiful little bird frequents our swamps and was singing away along the side of the road. While I have quite a few shots of these birds, this is by far my favorite.

Henderson Swamp Scene
Photo of the Week 2015-12-28
Taken early one morning on a tour. It looked like no sunrise for that morning and we were photographing in the other direction, then we looked back and saw this. One of my favorite shots from the Atchafalaya Basin.
Henderson Foggy Morning
Photo of the Week 2015-12-21
Christmas like images are rare in Southern Louisiana. No Mountains, Snow or Spruce trees. To me this is the closest we come. A foggy morning with Cypress Trees. Never mind that they either have orange leaves, or no leaves this time of year. But it would look nice on a christmas card or as a screen saver for Christmas.

Swan in Early Morning Light
Photo of the Week 2015-11-30
Taken many years ago using a film camera at Parker River National Wildlife Refuge in Massacussets, this is one of my favorates.
Arriving before dawn the swan was swimming in perfectly still water, as the sun rose, the sunrise reflected in the water allowing this shot, seconds later the shot was gone.
Fall Cypress Lake Dauterive
Photo of the Week 2015-11-24
Another shot taken on a very cold evening in November. The light that evening was sublime and the fall colors on the Cypress were perfect. Lake Dauterive November 19, 2013.
Gator on a log
Photo of the Week 2015-11-16
This was taken in the passage into Cow Island Lake. The gator was on a log strongly lit by sunlight, the background was in shadow, giving the shot a very sinister look. The texture of the log mirrors the texture on the back of the Gator and the rear log draws your eye to the face.

Lake Martin Pano
Photo of the Week 2015-11-02
This week the photo of the week is a panoramic image taken at Lake Martin. The image was made from 5 separate photographs taken with a digital camera using a panoramic head and stitched together forming one large image. It has been used previously as a 8' x 30' mural on the wall of a restaurant.
Photo of the Week 2015-10-29
Taken on one very cold overcast day in November of 2013. I'm not sure if at the time we were in Lake Dauterive or Fausse Point, it was right at the junction of the two lakes. This is a case where an overcast day worked to my advantage, making the colors really pop and with few dark shadows.
