For the last few months, it’s been a struggle to get out with the camera. Not sure why. I had no problem taking pics at events for work, but other than that…nada.

Anyway, I got out yesterday and had some fun. 

After scouting out the eagles near the Boundary Bay Airport in Delta, I headed off to Bear Creek Park in Surrey.

While I was walking through a particularly barren part of the gardens, this flower stood out like a sore thumb. Dead brown all around, with a splash of red in one corner. 

Hurray, the world is coming back to life for another year. 

Shot the eagle out of the car window with a Sigma 120-400 lens on my D700. For a change of pace, I used a Nikon 60 Micro in Bear Creek Park.
