Visited Mallard Point this afternoon, lots of action between the Trumpeter Swans and the Canada Geese......
Since retirement in July 2015, I have taken up photography as a hobby. I take my camera with me most times I am out walking or travelling. I love capturing the moment. I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them. I live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. To view best quality, click on each picture.

Cold and very foggy down on the Bow River this morning. I took more pictures with my cell phone than I did with my SLR.

For the past couple of years, I've been using Adobe Lightroom to process my pictures as I shoot in RAW format. I've always wanted to learn Photoshop. I bought a book on it and have played around the past few days. I've only scratched the surface and have a long learning curve ahead. One of the features is sky replacement. Here's what you can do.....
Here's the original pic of an Eagle landing on a tree on the other side of the river. It was an overcast morning.
In Photoshop I swapped out the overcast sky for a blue sky. It's a little too dark, haven't figured out yet how to lighten it.
