Vandana > June 6, 2012 - RIP Ray Bradbury (August 22, 1920 – June 5, 2012) - one of my most favorite authors. I feel like I have lost an old friend..

“Everyone must leave something behind when he dies, my grandfather said. A child or a book or a painting or a house or a wall built or a pair of shoes made. Or a garden planted. Something your hand touched some way so your soul has somewhere to go when you die, and when people look at that tree or that flower you planted, you're there.
It doesn't matter what you do, he said, so long as you change something from the way it was before you touched it into something that's like you after you take your hands away. The difference between the man who just cuts lawns and a real gardener is in the touching, he said. The lawn-cutter might just as well not have been there at all; the gardener will be there a lifetime.”
― Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

Vandana > June 3, 2012 - Warmed by the heart
so many butterflies, but such variety..I hope you don't mind ;)

Vandana > June 2, 2012 - Camouflage - the butterfly was hiding out in a shady corner in low light. Notice the high ISO at 2500, and lack of noise with the D4, quite impressed !

Vandana > May 31, 2012 - Standing tall

incidentally, I seem to have caught one of the giraffes in the act ! unexpected details in the D4 !!

Vandana > May 30, 2012 - Two in one !

Sorry if I'm boring you all with too many butterfly shots ! I don't get to do this often !

Vandana > May 29, 2012 - another day, another butterfly !

thanks for your comments on my b-fly yesterday ! much appreciated

Vandana > May 28, 2012 - butterflies at the Magic wings butterfly house, at the Museum of life and science, Durham, NC

lots of beautiful butterflies flitting around..some sat on li'l Arjun who was quite amused ! lovely place to shoot. shot with 70-200mm, f 2.8 lens and the D4.

Vandana > May 27, 2012- shooting birds

such pleasure shooting with the D4 camera, extremely fast, the autofocus is remarkably accurate, esp when focusing on a bird amidst a bunch of leaves...very hot -86F , and humid at the zoo tho, so tired and achy, carrying the heavy D4 and Arjun !

Vandana > May 26, 2012 - Little feet

from the D4. Off to Asheboro to the NC zoo for the weekend to try out my new camera ! Hopefully, good weather, and Arjun behaves in his stroller :) ! Uploads/comments via hotel wireless if/when I can !
