I think Marlene would have a zoo if she could.
northswan04

You are SO right.
BayLee

Joseph it looks like you scared the poor Bear. How cute, I love Bears.
Bonedog

Everybody's pictures are great. I can see I've got my work cut out for me. I'm having trouble getting time to go take pictures. Guess I'll have to work it in somehow.
Joeseph

I didnt scare any of those bears... my dogs did it = /  I havent run them in over 2 years but between me and my father we  have treed probably an average of 30+ or so bears a year when we were running hounds.
EdgarOrtega

Wow! We're getting some amazing shots this month.

John, that shot of the Banyan Trees is super.

Pulk! You came out of the wood work to post some awesome shots! Good to see you! :D Great pics! Nice to see you on here. :)

Laurie, I like that cactus shot. It looks like it has spiderlings crawling all over it. Very cool.


Great photos, everyone. Keep them coming! :)

Where did you see the Bears? Never seen on in nature, but I have been dying to see one close up.
EdgarOrtega

Marlene, that second shot is suhhweeet! :D I don't know who's gonna win this one. :)

all over northern california.... where there are woods there are bears.
BayLee

Maybe they know when I am coming and they run.
Pacmaster

How did you get those shots of the Lion and Bears???
Looks like you were right below them!
Awesome!

BTW, where were those taken?
Joeseph

The bears were taken in Nor cal the lion was taken in Nevada and we used dogs to run them up the trees.

Nice lilies and lilacs, Scott!  Beautiful!  
Bonedog

Everyone's shot are awesome! I see some money spent on frames soon. Print them up and put them on display.
EdgarOrtega

Nice shots, Warren! I love the butterfly shots.
wburke17

EdgarOrtega

That pic of the dog tracks in the sand would look cool in black and white, i think.

Amazing pics, everyone! This month is going to be tough!
EdgarOrtega

Hey, cool! Finally, a bat pic.

That little guy should be our mascot.

What should we name him?
EdgarOrtega

Laurie, you're taking some awesome photos. You have a great eye for lines and shapes. I can tell you're having fun with that new camera.  
northswan04

NOTE*** I think there was a size limitation on photos entered in the contest of below 900 pixels in either direction!!!  

Pointing this out because those of us with slower internet connections really notice the larger size when pics take forever to load. Can you guys with larger entries correct the size please?  


(Sorry if this is someone else's job to say)
EdgarOrtega

Oh, that's a good idea. Slow connections are a pain! Yeah, I think we'll shrink the size limit in the future. I did not think of that.

Thanks Marlene! :)
UglyKid2

Great flower pics, Scott!  
EdgarOrtega
