David's Images of the Day Photoblog
Vigilant Doe with Two Fawns. The Deer have not seen me for the last 3 months while I was away on the Semester at Sea MV Explorer. This doe stared at me for almost 15 minutes — probably thinking “who is this stranger in my backyard”. Image taken with a Nikon D4 camera and 600 mm f/4 VR lens (ISO 1600, 600 mm, f/4, 1/60 sec). Raw image processed with Capture One Pro, Focus Magic, and Photoshop CC 2014.
Kermit the Frog at the Pond. Image taken with a Nikon D3s camera and 80-400 mm VR II lens (ISO 5600, 400 mm, f/5.6, 1/2000 sec). Raw image processed with Capture One Pro, Focus Magic, and Photoshop CC.
Now that I am back from my Semester at Sea voyage, I went out to find some late summer butterflies. I didn’t see many butterflies, but did find more bumble bees.

Mother duck and eight ducklings resting in the middle of Lily lake. Lily lake is located on Colorado Rt 7 just outside of Estes Park.
