Cosumnes River Preserve

I’m really going down the rabbit hole of wildlife photography now. I’m still trying to work out a style, especially one that gels with my landscape stuff, but a couple of hours at Cosumnes River Preserve this weekend produced a few images I was happy with. And they seemed somewhat consistent in tone, too, which I liked. I realized that one of the reasons I like long exposure shots is because they reveal something that exists in nature but isn’t immediately visible. The zoom lens gives me the same feeling because when I see birds in their natural environment, I don’t get to reveal their tiny, natural details until I study the photographs later.
