Everyone who has entered photos can show them off in this thread. Once I have posted the photos to the gallery you can link to them for display. Use the "My Pics" section under the smilies when making your post. You can give us some deeper background and we can discuss the pictures.

Yes he did! It was a big week for Garrett. Got his driver's license on Thursday, and his Diploma on Saturday.

My congratulation to you as well, Jason.

That's a really cool water tower TBD! I bet it looks awesome at night!
So what's the story behind it?

It is very cool at night with the spotlights on it. I am not sure what the original story is. A friend of my wife was recently commissioned by the city to restore the artwork. They bumped into a problem when the found that the city has lost the original specs and picture records! What you see has been partially restored, but it is still up in the air about trying to return it to its original glory. It sits at the intersection of Interstate 90 and Route 528 in Madison.

As much as I like my number 21, I am not sure that it qualifies as "two different types of birds." It is a male and female of the same type, although I have forgotten what type that is other than "duck".



What do you guys think? I would use a different picture, but this is by far my best bird picture at the moment.

I wouldn't shun it Bill, but I didn't make the rules. I guess you'll have to ask permission from yourself.

Spectacular photo btw!

Hmmmmm.......Now where'd I put my glasses?!?.....Ah...Oh...There they are........Let's see,
Ahhh... #21....Ok.....

#21, speciffically states; Two or more different types of birds (same picture)

Well..........I guess you can't be any more different than male/female, and heck, It doesn't even require them to be alive!!

I vote no; photo of ducks not allowed under the rules. In many birds there is no difference of markings between genders so if I shoot a flock of birds of that type I wouldn't know for sure of the difference.

No hedging now. So, do I have to have a flightless bird and one that can fly to qualify as 'different types'?
