Artist Notes
This is a Great blue heron. I live close to this public fishing lake and I go there every day and look for these guys. I feel fortunate to find them setting on this old stump. I will park my car and walk to where he is. Sometimes they will fly before I get close to him but most of the time they stay put. I know then all I have to do is wait. Sometimes that is a long wait because they are looking for a fish to swim by. I had waited about thirty minutes and he did not want to wait anymore so he spread his wings and flew away. I was ready for him this time as I snapped the shutter just as he was lifting off.
I am using an Olympus E3 camera ISO 400 with a 70-300mm lens 1000/sec f11

Hello! My name is Willie Powell.
I have been interested in photography all my life. My dad is the one that taught me just enough to get me going. He had a darkroom & he taught me to know my way around in there. I took my first wedding when I was sixteen. I was really nervous. Untill you shoot one you will never know the pressure of getting it right. I am the photographer of Powell Photography. I take portraits, senior, engagement, wedding, and family pictures, or anything else you might want. I really like nature & portraits the best.
I worked at a metal stamping factory as a tool & die designer for 32 years, using different cad systems, the latest was pro-e wildfire. The managmet mistreated me & I decided I did not have to take it, so I retired, went out and bought an olympus E3 camera and some lenses, so now I can do what I've always wanted to
