It’s fun to be a passenger with a camera . . .

Coming back from Wakodahatchee with two friends recently, we two passengers (I was in the back seat), started snapping pictures at 40-50 mph of whatever we saw that looked interesting

These are some interesting shots. Well done for photography while zipping past at speed.

I really rather like the trees with the bird and the shadowed Lump Cows. (Frankly, I didn't even spot the cows until I clicked through to comment and looked at it again because the trees themselves & the bird grabbed all my attention.)

Thank you! I'm amazed at what the camera grabs. They don't always work, but somehow it seems to know most of the time what I'm trying to actually get. Anyway, "you pays your nickel and you takes your chance."

Hahaha, I like "lump cows." Good descriptive.

These are all really neat. I like them a lot - moody.

Thanks, ML.

You know I like creating and changing the look of a photo. It's what I love to do! Any normal/sane photographer would have deleted every one I took that day in the car, but not me. I guess I always think there's hope ....

Maybe it's because you aren't *just* a photographer, you are an artist!

[earthmother45]

I like that....thanks!

I absolutely love these pics, especially the first one!

It took me a while to find the cows. I spotted the bird first! I think it might be some kind of eagle. It is so weird to see the trees with so much lichen or whatever it is on them, too.

That little tiny building reminds me of one near my daughter's. I have been puzzling over it for some time (as it was unlived in) but there are pickers in that valley from time to time and it is cute and in a picturesque spot so some WOOFERS or pickers would like to stay in it. I don't know how much they'd enjoy the scenery as they would be so tired from working hard! (Unless they decided to have a few day's break for rest and recuperation).

Thank you, Beth....I'm so glad you like them! They have sort of a vintage look to them that I love, too. I've got a few more that I need to go through and see if I can "save." :))

That is the Spanish Moss in the trees. It is beautiful as it hangs and blows in the wind and when the sun hits it can get a silver like quality to it.

Ha, I should have known you'd spot that bird up there with your observant eye for things. The more I look at it, I think it is the Bald Eagle. The shape and stance of it, and the camera even picked up the white neck. It very well could have a nest in one of those trees.

It could have a nest there, too. I didn't think of that. It would be well camouflaged among the Spanish Moss!
