Little Bean Marsh CA


A new place! Today was my first visit to the small wetland area. The marsh, just north of the city, was pretty dry; not a lot of waterfowl-

Found many cricket frogs, a few ducks and teals, a small covey of quail and many fall colours.


The sycamores and birch were prime!

Wonderful Sycamore shot - what time of day? late afternoon? Are you using any filters or are these straight photos?

What's that little critter in the bottom pic?

I was over there in the evening; the tree photo was taken at dusk-and the photo at the bootom was a snail shell that was held at the surface of the water by the air inside. It was not alive, and didnt have to be!
I dont use any filters besides UV.. I cant afford them !
I would like to use a polarizing or Neutral Density filter someday, which control the amount and types of light that pass through the lens. Thanks for your comments!
