Iain Leitch Photography

I was in need of some photos so i deiced to go out for a walk down by the lake which is all frozen over. I got this photo of the bridge that crosses over a bit of the lake and i got some pictures of ducks as I was walking along the lake on the ice they were swimming in a little open pool and then i started talking photos of them and they just walked right over to me and sat down not a meter away from me. 

I was out for a drive and for the longest time I've wanted a picture of a bird of prey and i finally got one. The bird you see here in an American Kestrel it is smallest bird of prey in Canada. I found this bird sitting on a telephone wire on a side road when i was driving. I saw a small bird and though it was just a pigeon but then as we passed it i saw the distinct color variations on the bird and relished it was some kind of bird of prey. 

When i woke up and looked out my window all i saw was white overnight there had been a lot of frost and everything was covered in it, In the first photo i had to go start to car to defrost the windows and i happened to see that the sun was perfectly in lined with the road so i rushed inside to get my camera and i go this in return. In the next 4 photos at school the teacher keep on bugging us to go outside and take pictures so i finally did and got some pretty nice frost shots. In the third and fourth photos i think i showed the flacks of the frost really nicely 

This is another one of my photos from my recent Grand Rapids trip. In Grand Rapids they have a lot of tall buildings are most of them are made out of glass which makes for pretty good reflections like in this one you can see the outline of the building perfectly with very little warping. 

If you are new to photography and you want something to shoot that moves all you have to do is put up a backyard feeder. It drawn in many types of birds and they are always moving and coming back you you are bound to get some great photos.   In this photo I got a black eyed junco trying to land at my feeder in full spreed. This is a chickadee that landed on the post that holds up my feeder. This one is another chickadee as they are the most popular bird this time of year that was in my hedge.

I recently went on a trip to Grand Rapids in Michigan so ill be posting mostly pictures from my trip for the next little bit. Here in this picture is a huge box with many designee on it with a single light inside of it and you can see how cool it looks with the designee on the wall.
