Green-wood Birds and Plants
A couple of then many birds to be found in Green-wood Cemetery. Plus a couple of plants.
Green-wood Trees
The magnolias were out in Green-wood Cemetery. Any time I add something to my photographs I will tell you. In the last image I used a sky replacement.
Green-wood B&W
Green-Wood Cemetery on a rainy and cloudy spring day. I used sky replacements on the first three for more interesting gray skies. The tree stump in the last two is very sculptural. I would like it for my grave marker.
Flowers in Hudson River Park
From a short walk down to the river. I lit the flowers with an RGB Panel Pro 2.0 | App Controlled LED Panel for Photographers.
Lower Bay Birds
To wrap up my posts of the American Princes pelagic boat trip here are a few more birds. At the end of the trip, the boat hit a sand bar at the entrance to Sheepshead Bay. This happened because of a very low tide. After freeing the boat, the captain took us to see more birds while waiting for the tide to come in. I apologize for the poor quality of the horned grebe photo but it is all I have.
Bottlenose Dolphins
We were entertained by a pod of bottlenose dolphins in the New York Bight.
Gannets
The highlight of the pelagic boat trip on the American Princess were the gannets. There were more gannets than I have ever seen in one place in my life. They were tightly packed over a school of fish. The diving took place at the edge of the group of gannets. It was like watching a machine gun firing into the water as one bird dove in rapidly after another. It is amazing how they turned themselves into little torpedoes as they entered the water.
