What’s Up?
I woke at 2:30am on Friday, read until 3:30, got out of bed and finished packing for JAX, created today’s YouTube video, and had time for a short session on the pier to satisfy my addiction. I headed into town at 8:15am.
TJ did his usual bang-up job on my right shoulder, […]
Jacksonville In-the-Field Sessions
Though nobody signed up for the first Jacksonville IPT, I am driving up on Friday and shooting through Tuesday morning. Dustin Hulbert inspired me with his e-mail a few days ago stating that the nesting season is in full swing with non-stop flight action, terns carrying all types of fish and invertebrates, […]

World War II and Me
I recently realized that there were big holes in my understanding of World War II. At the suggestion of a friend, I enrolled in a free online course at Hillsdale College. “The Second World Wars,” is taught by Victor Davis Hanson and Larry P. Arnn. It helped me understand […]
What’s Up?
Sunday morning was shaping up to be a dud. I was about ready to head home before 7:30, but I paused when I stepped off the pier hoping that something good might fly by. Something did and I made the most of it. Then I got on the ground on Park Avenue and […]
What’s Up?
I got down to the pier early and was glad I did as there was some nice sunrise silhouette color. And a Little Blue Heron foraged in just the right spots. Next, I created a few Osprey images. Then it clouded over completely, and the wind died to nothing, so I headed home […]

OKC PhotoCon 2022
I will be doing a Master Class at PhotoCon 2022 in Oklahoma City, OK on Saturday 22 OCT. I will share registration (and discount) details this weekend. I am considering coming early or staying on a few extra days to do some bird photography. If you know of any great birding spots […]
What’s Up?
Most of the photography action is centered around the pier right now. On Tuesday morning, I walked the pier twice and spent some time in the shallow water just north of the pier. I photographed Osprey, Great Blue Heron, Great Egret, Common Moorhen, Mottled Duck, Anhinga, Limpkin, and Green Heron. Oh, and a […]
Your Call?
What do you think of today’s featured image?
What’s Up?
Monday morning was superbly perfect for bird photography with sunny skies and a variable east wind. I did not, however, do much in the first hour. Walking the pier, I created some blurs of two juvie Ospreys playing tag and tried and […]
Which Do You Like Best?
Which do you like best, the flight shot, the video, or the clacking head shot? Why?
What’s Up?
Sunday morning dawned cloudy. The sun came out for ten minutes early on. I was out for an hour and a half; it was my least productive morning in the last four […]
What’s Up?
Friday morning was gorgeous with clear skies and a wind from the east. I spent the first hour plus dealing with my Green-Heron-fishing-on-the-short-pilings-next-to-the-pier obsession. I did some blurs and got at least one great video. I photographed a tame Limpkin on the pier railing and ended my morning with a caracara family dining […]
What’s Up?
I got down to the lake early, worked the Green Herons near the pier in pre-dawn light, and liked the results. I am, however, looking forward to doing even better. The weather was gorgeous: sunny and dead calm. I did some Limpkins, some cranes, a Tricolored Heron in a marsh setting, some dragonflies, […]
Warriors NBA Champs!
The Golden State Warriors, led by Steph Curry’s 34 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals, easily defeated the favored Boston Celtics in Game 6 of the NBA Finals. The Celtic led 14-2 early but after that it was all downhill for them. It was the Warriors fourth championship (and sixth […]
Which of Today’s Featured Dan Cadieux Images is Your Favorite?
Why?
What’s Up?
I walked the pier for a brief photo session before heading into town. And created 796 images. There was a young spoonbill in the marsh but … Then I had two good chances on fly-by juvie Ospreys. That was followed by […]
What’s Up?
On Monday 13 June, there were Green Herons fishing from the short, rotted pilings just north of the pier. I worked with the tripod mounted Sony 600mm f/4 GM lens. In addition, I did some Ospreys in flight and a fly-by Great Blue Heron. And I spotted a new opportunity to create morning […]
