A beloved re-edited photo from a couple of years back.

No fancy prose this week. I actually could’ve used last week’s image again, it was a ghostly blur. But as others have pointed out, we photographers produce a whole bunch of “creatively” blurred images that work with this challenge. So here’s the first type of blur from me – Almost Blur.
When you’re almost in the right place, at the right time, with the right camera, right lens, right shutter speed, right ISO, right aperture and right focus – this happens. If only I had been on the other side of the small trees. Almost . . .
At 15 degrees F, I wasn’t expecting to find this today, so I had left the long lens at home. Funny how it works out that way. This is a very cropped 300 mm photo (didn’t want to get too close and disturb them). But you can still make out the branch in the his/her beak as the nest is further constructed. Maybe eaglets in a couple of months?
It may not be the sharpest lens in the world, but for $25 (and $10 for the 2x converter), it’s entertaining.
