Portrait in Blue, Snow Goose, Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, San Antonio NM, February 4, 2010
Here's a closer crop of the Snow Goose picture I put up yesterday
This picture is one of a sequence of 24 shots of this Snow Goose swimming to shore and climbing the bank. Sorting through that February evening's shoot I was set to toss the whole bunch but zoomed in to full size on a few first and found I had something pretty good on a couple of them with some major cropping.
I have a still closer zoom of this picture I'll put up tomorrow.

The Trespasser's Eyeshine
She put the butt end of the flashlight against her forehead, just above the space between her eyebrows. It was something she'd learned long ago about seeing at night. A light shined from there would reveal nothing of herself to a trespasser, and from that spot on her forehead a beam would go straight to the retinas and return to her own eyes the characteristic color of the trespasser's eyeshine. If it had eyes, of course, and if they were looking at her directly.
