A favor

[Maestro]

I'd like to ask a favor of the Loungers. When you get a chance would you please visit my photography website and browse through the galleries? When you do so if you see a picture that you really like, in the upper right hand corner, when you mouse over the area, a thumbs up and down icon appears. Please mark the ones that you like because I am trying to get a better idea of which photos are most popular. My most popular photos which also appear on the home have been the same for quite some time so I would like to change things up a bit. Of course, perhaps, what is already there is what you like too. Anyhow, if you could visit my site and do this I would greatly appreciate it.

Here is an example: Baby bluebirds that just hatched in my backyard.

1. I probably won't have time to do that until later today, but your work is amazing.

Just wanted to tell you that.

[Maestro]

4. Thanks Midlo

Much appreciated

[TexasLady]

2. I love the Red Tailed Hawk

that is an amazing picture.

really crisp photos, thanks for sharing them.

[Maestro]

13. Thanks

There certainly are plenty around from which to choose but they can be quite skittish.

[cwydro]

3. I love your pictures.

I'm at work today and may not be able to do that until tomorrow, but I will do so.

[Maestro]

15. Take your time.

I just want to change things up a bit. While I certainly think that what people have chosen as some of my better pics are pretty, I'd like to see some rotation in the photos, but who knows. Perhaps what is there is the best. :)

5. Bookmarked so I can look later.

I'm busy but I would LOVE to help you out. Your photography is awesome. I'm a big fan..:)

6. Great work

especially since photographing birds is really hard. Your pictures are outstanding :thumbsup:

[Heidi]

7. Done!

I love your website. Super work. :thumbsup:

By the way, for the past three mornings we've had a visitor at the conifer tree at the corner of our little meditation garden: a woodpecker. I'm going through the Swiss Ornithological Institute's website to try to figure out which kind this is; am pretty sure it's either a Great Spotted Woodpecker (classified as "least concern" by the SOI) or a Middle Spotted (classified "vulnerable). Hope I can get a photo soon, but this bird moves _fast_. :hi:

[Maestro]

30. Thanks

And I would love to visit other countries to get pictures of its wildlife like your specific woodpecker. :hi:

[RebelOne]

[Maestro]

32. Thanks for helping out.

17. How did you catch all those birds and plants in such interesting situations?

[Maestro]

21. A mixture of serendipity, sweat, patience, cussing,

siting in hot/cold weather, sometimes thigh deep in mud, sometimes in a blind, but it is what I like doing. I love being outdoors trying to find that one interesting shot. If I think I find one, the next day I am out to get one better. :) It's my hobby.

[applegrove]

25. Smart of you to love nature and make that your hobby. So healthy. And beautiful pics as

a result.

[JitterbugPerfume]

18. I will do that!

[JitterbugPerfume]

19. can I give that painted bunting two thumbs up?

You are a fantastic photographer . I love all of them . There's not a:thumbsdown: in the whole group!


I know--I know

I'm no help

That baby bluebird is just precious

[Haole Girl]

20. Be right there

:hi:

[GReedDiamond]

24. You have quite a lot of beautiful work there...

...I started going though the first few groups of photos, rating them as you requested, but I came to the conclusion that rating them was pointless.

The ones I gave a "thumbs down" to, I did only because many of the others were so GREAT! They're ALL at least good+.

[Maestro]

29. Well just enjoy the site then.

:) That is why I put it up. :hi:

[Texasgal]

26. OMG!

:thud:

AMAZING PICTURES! I have waaay too many favorites!

[Maestro]

31. And all from Texas!

We have a great state despite the current political party trying to destroy it and its wildlife.

[Skittles]

34. hey Maestro

do you have a bluebird box in your yard? We had some out at the farm - seems like bluebirds were very picky - we had them just a few feet off the ground

[Maestro]

35. Sure do Skittles. I have two in fact.

Only one is occupied though. :hi: Look here.
