My
“Favorite Link” for this edition of our newsletter is www.rue.com
Here you will find some unique and helpful accessories for wildlife photography.
I was fortunate enough to meet Lennie & Len Rue, Jr. one day on Winslow
Hill at my favorite spot. I was waiting for the elk to appear late in the
day and they asked if they could join me in the wait. Believe me, these
guys know a ton about wildlife photography! It was a thrill to hear them
tell one photography story after another for the time we were together waiting
for the elk to appear. Their website is definitely worth checking out!

I
just posted some new photographs of some geese and goslings. I was out on
the shoot this past Friday and found it challenging to photograph these
beautiful birds. I think I did capture some good poses, but take a look
yourself and see what you think. You can access these new photos by going
to my Bird Gallery and navigating toward the bottom. Or click on the photo
to the left to get there.

Willie
Wonka, Jr. was a big success at Pleasant Valley Intermediate school at the
beginning of this month. I had the privilege of capturing some of the action
with my camera. The photos can be viewed on my website by clicking on Willie
Wonka photo to the left. Some of you may have had trouble viewing the photos
in the old gallery, so I created a new and improved one. It is still a secure
gallery. The username is pvi and the password is wonka. I hope you enjoy
this new and improved way to view the photos. Professional prints can be
purchased. A special discount is in effect through June 15th.

| Wildlife
Photo Tip of the Month
Those who know
me will find this hard to believe, but when photographing wildlife you
have to be patient. I know, I can be extremely impatient many times, but
out in the wild outdoors patience is your best friend. Trying to photograph
wildlife is not a fast process. Sometimes we wait and wait with no animal
making an appearance at all. Other times, like today when I was photographing
geese, I find myself doing more waiting than shooting. Being patient with
a decided determination will help you be ready when the moment arrives.
At times this moment can be elusive, but with a positive and patient attitude
you can be an effective wildlife photographer!
