No matter how advanced your camera you still need to be responsible for getting it to the right place at the right time and pointing it in the right direction to get the photo you want.

Sunny Walter's Nature Weekends: "Are you looking for the best places to enjoy nature in Washington State -- and throughout the West? I've discovered hundreds of wonderful websites that tell us WHERE to find birds, butterflies, mammals, salmon, wildflowers, fall color, gardens, scenic drives, waterfalls, and geologic formations. I have also described some of my favorite WA State locations where I go to enjoy and photograph nature -- and I've shared with you the best time to visit each place."
