a 366 photo challenge for 2012 - I have joined the friendly crowd at Elements Village on the web and have decided to start at 'A' and follow the 366 themes daily - I like the idea that I will need to take (or make) images that will stretch my skills and imagination - and if I throw in a few extras just for fun - forgive me - OK? Trying to stay focused for a whole year will be a challenge in itself - wish me luck and come and visit anytime...

February 21 - Colours
In contrast to the B&W play this morning, some of my favourite birds in full colour - rainbow lorikeet sitting at his nest-hollow in the afternoon sun at Lightning Ridge and rainbow bee-eaters in a tree near the river behind our house.
To me, those are Exotic Birds--and they are glorious. I especially like the top photo. It's perfectly composed and shpws off the unique features of the little critter.
The Lorrikeets are a dime a dozen around here, but wonderful chat mates. The bee-eater is such a wonderful capture. Great Shot!
ReplyDeleteI just love your bird photos and their colours are amazing.
ReplyDeleteCan't see too much of your birds! The DOF and the sharpness of the bee-eaters is just wonderful!
ReplyDeleteLove the crisp focus and shallow DoF.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors...I am now jealous of you too...I want these birds in my neck of the woods! :)
