Ok here are a couple of photos that I have sitting on my hard drive from
the last couple of weeks. As always I like to hear feed back and you
can do this at dixondon@hotmail.com
Its been awhile
again life gets in the way, I wish I had more time to take more pictures
and post them but work has to be first, without money all this isnt
possible.
Maybe I should start selling my photos on ebay? Any opinions on that? I
get various views from all over the world, email me with your thoughts

a word and a bird
So I havent posted in quite a while, Ive been going for drives and
doing less shooting and more watching of the world around me.
Photography has opened up my eyes to see whats around me and now Im
finally taking the time to breath it all in instead of trying to capture
it.
We live in a pretty amazing place and the more I look around the more conscious I get about buying earth friendly things. I may not be around in 50 years but Im doing my best to make sure people then dont have to look at my pictures to see a place or an animal that doesnt exist anymore.
Anyway I have 2 photos, both of ducks. My wife was feeding them so they become our friends pretty fast. She was feeding them bird seed, we NEVER feed birds bread because it isnt good for them. If you want to feed any animal make sure you check to see whats good for them. Ducks and geese like cracked corn and its super cheap, we can get 2-3 summers out of a bag thats $11.50 CDN. Thats a great price for the entertainment we get.

Niagara, African Lion Safari and Ripleys Aquarium!
Well Im on vacation right now so I have had some time to get out and shoot. First was Niagara Falls Butterfly Conservatory, if you havent been then imagine its like heaven with plants and butterflies off all colors flying around you. When you step into that room all your troubles just disappear.
Second on our stop was African Lion Safari, its a place where you drive your car through different "regions" and see all sorts of animals. You name it, they have it! There are always 2 cars watching the big cats in case someone jumps out or rolls down the window.
Third on our list is Ripley's Aquarium, they have a little bit of everything you might find in the sea. They have a walk thru tunnel with sharks, stingrays and various fish swimming around you. It really is amazing to see.
If you are ever in Toronto this is a must for people that love nature that you dont get to see a lot of.
This is it for now, I hope to post more pictures as time goes on.
Remember if you like what Im doing and would like to donate money please donate at cindybates@rogers.com in paypal.

They also have different shows that you can attend for the cost of admission into the part itself.
If you are ever in Cambridge you might want to check this place out.

Well its been 5 years and 3 dslr's later that I arrive here. Each picture better then the one before (I think). Photography has always been my release to the hustle of everyday and I continue to try to fine tune what I do. I always find it odd when someone says something good about any of my pictures because all I did was capture the beauty that we see every day but we just walk on past it without a glance. My goal was always to share the world around me and maybe get you to stop and look at what this world has to offer. Thank you for taking a look at some of the stuff I do. If you are on facebook please join the don dixon photography group.
