Today I was contacted by Bob Pelkey and invited to join with him and several photographers participating in a photo workshop operated by a renown avian photographer Arthur Morris.
I met up with Bob and IPT group at Festival Park in north Cape Coral where they were working on techniques with photographing the very cooperative Florida Scrub-Jays. Attempts to get shots of the local Great Horned Owls, but they were uncooperative. I did enjoy my visit with these folks.
One of the co-leaders was Peter Kes from Switzerland and I did enjoy reviewing his gallery.
