Jerry Barton > 1940 Rieger
2012-04-23 The 'monthly organ tour' has started again. This one, built by Rieger Brothers was constructed during the war in a church that was at that time in the 'immigrant quarter' of Vienna. It has three manuals, and 56 voices, including several that I had never seen before (except on electronic organs): Gedacktpommer, Bombarde, Harfenprinzipal, Untersatz, etc. And more little buttons than I've ever seen before.

Jerry Barton > Take 2: Bamboo Love
2012-04-19 I did what I mentioned in my previous post - I went back to the Botanical Gardens with my tripod and made a sharper picture. The light was different as well (brighter), and I notice that I was closer than in the original picture. Still, in my humble opinion, this shot is better than the previous one for the 'shades of green' competition. [and by the way, both shots have been rotated to horizontal, the original is vertical.] Many thanks for your comments and thoughts.

Jerry Barton > Bamboo Love
2012-04-17 As seen at the Vienna University Botanical Gardens. The local photo club has a theme of 'shades of green' for its monthly contest. When I spotted this collection of bamboo, and then noted the inscription, I thought it might work. I don't think it is sharp enough for submission, though (hand-held, high ISO, low DOF). I'll have to go back with a tripod.

Jerry Barton > Early Spring
2012-04-13 A view to the east from the top terrace of Schosshof, on Austria's eastern border. Schlosshof was built 1720-30 as a baroque palace for Prince Eugene of Savoy, and suffered neglect and dismantling for most of the 20th century. Restoration began in 2002 (for example, the pond in the foreground has not yet been restored). The March (Morava) River that marks the border is hidden behind the dark green trees, and the village is Devínska Nová Ves in Slovakia.

Many thanks for all the kind comments on my rooster shot. He lives in the gardens of Schlosshof.

Jerry Barton > Attitude
2012-04-12 Spring gets things moving, and this rooster (at Schlosshof in eastern Austria) was making sure that everyone knows that he is king of the barnyard.
My goodness, I hadn't realized that I haven't posted for two weeks or so. I'm back at home in Austria.

Jerry Barton > Roseate
2012-03-26 Another picture from the Bradenton Rookerie. A Roseate Spoonbill.

Many thanks for yesterday's comments. As I went to sleep, it was #4 for the day.

Jerry Barton > It's Morning!
2012-03-25 Activity picking up around the rookery at dawn. Seen at an island in the mouth of the Myakka River. Many thanks for the kind comments on yesterday's shot!

Jerry Barton > Here I am
2012-03-24 Yesterday I was out and about from before dawn to dusk - 614 shots on the chip, first selection down to fifty. Now to look at them closely. This great white egret is one of them, showing off his breeding plumage.

Jerry Barton > Gulp
2012-03-21 I'm not sure what kind of bird this is - the curved bill makes me guess "Ibis", but the colors are not right for an Ibis. At any rate, it swallowed the fish even before its bill left the water. It seems to have a satisfied look on its face.
Update: It is a glossy ibis. Thanks Lori and your friend Jason
Many thanks for the comments on my dragonfly/alligator combination.

Jerry Barton > Catching a ride
2012-03-20 I must admit that I didn't even see the dragonfly when I took the picture. Seen in the Myakka River, Florida.
And many thanks not only for the comments on the butterfly shot, but for the additional comments on my osprey shot. Much appreciated.

Jerry Barton > Zebra Heliconian
2012-03-17 Fifty young zebra H. butterflies were released yesterday at The Butterfly Estates in Ft. Myers, Florida.
True thanks for all the wonderful comments on the osprey shot yesterday. When I went to sleep it was number 4 for the day. You are amazing!

Jerry Barton > Here's looking at you, prey
2012-03-16 An osprey wheeling around just offshore from Gasparilla park in Florida. This shot is, of course, a close crop resized.
Many thanks for the many comments on yesterday's dragonfly shot. Much appreciated.

Jerry Barton > The Green Darner
2012-03-15 It flew in and sat down right in front of me. Gasparilla State Park, Florida.

Thanks for the comments on yesterday's shot. Yes indeed, lots of 500mm and even more, with high end cameras too. ah well, the camera doesn't make the picture, it only opens up more possibilities. The photographer makes the picture.
