Thanks, Yvonne. Yes, it's open to the public (there's a charge of $3 per person to visit the temple). It's located in the Valley of the Temples, a cemetery on the windward (eastern) side of the island, off of Kahekili Highway (route 83).

The Enforcers

These two pelicans joined us on an airboat tour in Florida. I believe the captain hired these guys to be sure that we didn't forget to tip!

Great pic

Great seagull shot! How close were you when you took that?

I've been watching this thread for a long time, and I've been marveling at the photography skills of some the posters. I 've enjoyed everyone else's photos so much that it inspired me to share a few of mine. I'm not nearly as talented though. I'm strictly a point-and-shoot photographer.

I have enjoyed this thread since it started and figured it was finally time to figure out how to post photos.

Question: If I have done it correctly, will the photo show up when I preview my post before submitting? I am using Picasa. When I hit preview, I just see the link to my photo.

Thanks!

You likely will not see your photo when you click to preview your post. If you'll choose any post that has a photo in it above and click on "quote" in the lower right box, you'll see how that post looks before it's posted.

Post #19 on the first page of this thread has some good directions about posting photos from photobucket. I'm not familiar with picasa, but you can check out photobucket if it doesn't work for you otherwise.

 

[sstamm]

Thanks for the help!
I guess I'll just try and see if it works. Otherwise, I'll check out photobucket.

Ok, well that didn't work.
Guess I will try photobucket.

Trying again.

that seagull was only about 30ft away - the zoom lens (with Canon "AI servo") tracks the focus, you can get good flying bird shots.

Bluebird for the first time ever!

I have never seen a bluebird live and in person. Today one was on my suet feeder and I about flipped in my desk chair. No camera at hand so watched with wonder. Then I saw a SECOND one! The female! So I went to get the camera and was so excited, this photo is crummy; you can see I was shaking with excitment. But it's evidence. When I went closer to get a better shot from the window, off he went. Maybe tomorrow. It's been a tough winter so they must know I've got goodies at my feeders.

GREAT bird shots, Diane! That feeling of being too excited to shoot straight is very familiar. The cardinal shot would make a FANTASTIC holiday card.

Aside from that, it sure does look like you've got a mess of ice in your area - stay safe and warm.

 

[Rose Pink]

The cardinal shot took my breath away! Gorgeous photography.

 

[dmharris]

Thanks Ladies,

The Cardinal is out of respect for those Arizona Cardinals that our Pittsburgh Steelers are going to leave out in the cold on Sunday. ;-)

Aaaaaghhhh! That's like a dagger in my heart. Just you wait - yesterday's news is that Tom Brady is on track and already beginning workouts for next year. RAH RAH!

Oh, who am I kidding? Football does nothing for me. But pitchers and catchers report in just a few short weeks and then my world will revolve once more!

Good luck to your team in Sunday's game, Diane.

Nice picture John. Do the pelicans take dollar bills or herring?
