There terrain around Litchfield County produces great cloud formations. 

Images of Clouds are always interesting with a telephoto lens and Photoshop. 

Either you enjoy pictures of flowers or you've seen too many. Either way - here is another picture of a rose.

The nice thing about having children is that you have a live in model. Portrait photograpghy can be rewarding especially when you break away from the staged shots.

This goat didn't have much of a personality, just stood there a bit. I guess if you're stuck in a cage for the rest of your life you may become quite dull also. Or maybe it was waiting for me to move along so that it could resume it's tunneling for freedom? 

This poor little Goldfinch was hit by pesticide. He was rescued by some caring employees at TAC air at Brainard Int. Airport after he fell out of the bushes that were hit with pesticides. He wasn't doing too well when I left, you can see a bit of foam around his beak. I didn't consider him to be a pest... 

Some exotic cattle placed behind a fence that gave me flashbacks to the movie Jurassic Park. 

This baby is only moments old - you can see the umbillical still.

Some native Connecticut Waterfowl. Yeah they grow big up here.
