    The wild experience of colorful macaws flying over the crowd, nice and low. First, a shot taken with a wide lens at 18mm to show how close they get:

    Then a few at 70mm from a little farther back:

    It's actually very difficult to keep them in frame even at 70mm, since they fly from feet to inches away:

    I hear that the Flame Tree BBQ sauce is going away. That is too bad as I ate here every time in DAK.

    One day last year, Animal Kingdom opened at 7 am - in February! Needless to say, there were interesting light opportunities.

    Finally grabbed those Nik plug-ins for LR recently and put the Silver Efex Pro 2 to good use.

    Go deep on the inner trails and you can find these old guys, the Galapagos tortoises:
