Two things I’ve been slacking about by the end of 2013 were updating my blog and not only taking, but editing and sharing some of my photography.<\/p>\n

Photography is a real passion of mine and I haven’t really been giving it a lot of time in general. Even when I DO take photos, rarely do I get around to reviewing or sharing them. Which is like half the point.<\/p>\n

So Saturday afternoon, Love and I went over to Busch Gardens (Tampa)<\/a> for a couple hours. It was overcast and windy but we managed two hours before the storms rolled in and I got quite a few nice photos out of it. And thus, in keeping with trying to be better about both blogging and photography, here are some of the selections from the day.<\/p>\n

(All of these were taken with my trusty EF-S 55-250mm IS lens and Canon T4i camera. I rarely bother with anything except a telephoto when shooting at BG due to the distance between the animals and yourself.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
