About This Blog

I began this blog in 2011 in an attempt to improve my photography and showcase all of California's 58 counties. I didn't quite make all of the 58, I missed three and I will try to rectify that in the coming year. I'm not sure how much I improved my photography because I always seemed to be in a rush.
In 2012 I plan to take more time, perhaps not post every day (this is one thing I did accomplish in 2011). I also plan to expand beyond California and include images from other parts of Western United States. I will continue to include a map showing where I was when I took the picture. I will keep commentary to a minimum, long photo essays will continue to be at Martha's Musings.

There is something magical about herons in flight. It looks like a dinosaur and then you watch it hunt and catch fish and it is amazing..love them...

I'll make no bones about it, I love herons in flight, herons fishing, or herons just standing there looking regal. Your beautiful Blue is a pleasure!

They look so heavy on take-off, yet so graceful in full flight.

Great in flight shot Martha! That bird certainly looks determined!

It looks like a Pterodactyl in its flight pose!
