Caught this guy wondering around my yard, still working on getting him to eat out of my hand. Soon, very soon though.
birds of prey close up and personal
Went to the mall today and they had a bird show going on, the place was packed with both adults and kids in awe of these amazing birds. Here are 2 really close up shots using a 100-400mm with an iso of 2500 just to catch the light at the distance I was at.

| And one from my yard, I thought it looked kind of neat so I decided to post it as well. |
spring is in the air
Got out and shot off a couple of pics down at our local lake. There were a bunch of birds enjoying the warmth of the sun and looking for food in the melting snow.
Here they are.
Here they are.
A few from the summer trips
These images above were all taken at the African Lion Safari in Cambridge Ontario
This image is from the Buffalo Zoo, if you get a chance to visit there I highly recommend it.
The above animals are from Sea World Florida and Bush Gardens
Arkells New Years Eve
New Years Eve 2011, I submitted some of these to the local paper. I'm really excited to see my name in print with my work.
from the cold
Finally built up enough energy to go out and shoot a couple of pics off in the backyard.
A little different for the bird, blew the highlights out and liked the results, hope you do too.

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.
