Photography- one photo a day

Bosque is a cool place! I was a assistant manager there from 2016-2019

It's been many, many years since I visited there. I imagine it's changed somewhat over the years. In the early '80s, I was a travelling sales rep selling photo gear, & NM was part of my territory. So every time I passed by the Bosque, I would stop by for a few hours of picture taking. I have hundreds of unscanned slides from there.

Another Bosque denizen...

Pay no attention to that broken yard ornament behind me.

It's not going to happen but I like his enthusiasm. A good California buck.

Learned a lot from the rodeo session this weekend-

• Need to switch vantage points to eliminate as much background noise (people) as possible since I end up having to heavily crop to avoid weird faces
• Potentially get closer so I can maximize aperture to blur out the background better.
• Best light was from the opposite side but the kids kept falling off to this side.
  
  Tips and critques always welcome

Is that the Cassin Ridge up the middle of the little knob on top?
If so, I think I've never seen this particular perspective.

Caught this guy peeking through the leaves today. Tricky little buggers.

Extra credit if you know what it is.

Your second statement makes no sense to me. Distance and long lenses combined with wider apertures will isolate your subject more. Getting closer and using shorter focal length lenses will make that harder.

Yeah, it’s the ridge that has the biggest part of the cloud going right through the center.

Always a nice way to start the day.

It's a caterpillar intent on choking the life out of that bird.

It just wouldn’t be right, driving up to Fairbanks, without stopping here for a beer.
