I must say, this collection is truly in it's badnessosity. Truly
repulsive. Excellent job by all!

No pride in this group. We have all shown we have the credentials to
identify bad travel photography when we see it.

The only conspicuous absentees seem to be Paul, Bret, Bruce, DMac, and
the master of the genre Sisker.

With apologies, I wasn't available, but here's three lame attempts at
snowy egrets which I went ahead and uploaded to my bloated flicker
account anyways:

Maybe one is an OK composition but the focus/shake? is poor on all.
sigh ...


Sorry, Paul. The first two egret shots are not all that bad. they show
an interesting landscape layering of colors. the last with the centered
tree and the two egrets flying, qualifies.

Martha wondered if they were actually blue herons because the white balance
seems so bad. I just thought they looked like paper cutouts. Nice job!!
