Been working on a project for 7 days straight.
Needed to pick up some stuff and went by a field of flowers.
Shot the Butterfly with a 100mm macro lens (not a planned lens selection).
f/5 at 1/50 ISO 200 5D….

Top two sun sets - Lynnhaven and Easter Shore
Bottom two sun rise - Lynnhaven and Wesy Point, Va.

High f stop - makes them a little dark.....

Relaxed, feeding and successful.
Poor minnows - 5 catches in a row.

Could not put two sets of White Egrets in a row.
Seperating them by a red flower would be a good contrast.
Was trying a lower f-stop and did not get the depth
I usually like.

Quit waiting for another white egret to show up.
Took the boat out in the Lynnhaven area and found
several that wanted to have their picture
taken

The word salary derives from the Middle English salaire,
from the Latin word salarium, a payment made in salt.
The Romans paid the army in salt.
A great book, New York Times best seller list Salt: A World History by Mark Kurlansky, tells why the world is the way it is today because of salt.

2000 years ago this pile of salt would make you a wealthy person.
Beautiful sky in Bonaire. Always very clear and blue.
