Today’s image is of the commonly seen Eastern Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly. They are all over Eastern NC and many other places in the United States. Shot with my Canon 7dmkii and Tamron 70-300mm lens and processed in Adobe Lightroom.

Taken with my Canon 7d Mkii and Tamron 70-300mm lens at 300mm.
Spring is here and has been for a little while now. This is a peach tree in our neighbors back yard. Didn’t realize I had captured the butterfly and bee in the same frame until I pulled this image up for editing. Shot with Canon 7d mkii and Canon 400mm f/5.6L.
So I decided to enter my Pelican Portrait photo into the Popular Photography Magazine month of March best shot contest. I made some changes to it in Adobe Lightroom earlier today to bring out some more features.
I would be grateful of anyone who clicks the link and leaves me a vote! The edited image is posted there and is also the image for this post. Thanks!

As always thanks for stopping by.
Occasionally I go to the Marina on base during lunch to practice my photography skills and enjoy being out of the office. There is usually an interesting assortment of birds as well as Marines flying overhead in all types of whirlybirds.
Here are some shots I was able to capture today. The weather is just to beautiful but it was a bit bright and there was a lot of smoke clouding the sky due to ordnance being destroyed.
