A Break in the Fog

I’d hoped that once my drone rose above the fog, that I would discover that it was hovering only over the lake. Nope, it pretty much covered Cleveland County. I did find this one break and liked the way that the trees were slightly visible. A little bit of adjusting with the clarity and brushing out of some unimportant objects revealed something that I like.

The Goldfinches are Back

It’s just turned February and the feeders are under attack by a dozen or so Goldfinches, which we haven’t seen in months. They are pretty good at hovering while they wait their turn at a feeding post while others wait in the nearby trees. I caught this guy waiting on a branch in a brisk breeze.
I had to crop the picture pretty dramatically to get this framing and pump up the vibrance and reduce the noise a bit to reach this final.
