Eagles over Lancaster.

This past weekend was pretty fun for my 25th birthday, my family went to one of our favorite spots, Lancaster, PA. It's always nice to get away from loud New York once in a while. While we were there, I spotted a rather large gathering of huge birds in the trees. I grabbed my 70-300 and zoomed... I couldn't believe my eyes! Bald Eagles, eight of them perching in a tree. This sort of thing rarely ever happens to me, so I grabbed my camera and snapped a few shots of them. I'm not a huge fan of how the pictures came out because I was so far off,  they are basically just silhouettes of the birds, but it was nice to see them in general. Hopefully next time they are a bit closer, I'd like that very much!

I did manage to follow one as they scattered and he just sat in the tree and watched me take his photograph. He was quite nice and didn't fly off like other birds normally do.

Christmas by the Lake.

Saturday was an unusually warm day for the middle of December. And so we set out for a shoot at Belmont State Park. The sun was in a perfect spot in the sky and the leaves were just the right color. The two girls were so cooperative, they made the shoot so much fun. Even the parents jumped in so I could get a good family style photo for Christmas. I brought the whole team with me, and we all had a great time. It was a good experience and I'll have a picture to post in a few days.
