A swamp in Louisiana, outside of New Orleans, as seen from an airboat. Felt like a whole different world than anything I'd ever seen before. The folks at Airboat Adventures were awesome!

The view as we headed out on an airboat to tour some Louisiana swamps. By the end of the tour, the sky was raging. The folks at Airboat Adventures were awesome!

That's a big gator!

The alligator was almost the length of the other airboat. It was at least 13 feet long. The folks at Airboat Adventures were awesome!

Also, this was taken with the Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L IS, version 1. I have the f/4L IS, but the 2.8 is pretty awesome. Huge, but the creamy bokeh is amazing for a lens that's just one stop faster than mine. I can't imagine what the new version is like.

Vernal Fall, swollen with this winter's melt. Hard to describe how viscerally powerful this waterfall felt when standing right at its edge.
