Oh gosh it feels really strange to upload a picture after taking an almost month long 365 break. Actually, I pretty much completely ignored my camera this whole time, but was starting to really miss it and miss posting here and seeing everyone's pictures.
I don't plan on posting everyday, but maybe once a week. Maybe more, maybe less. We'll see. My problem for this past month was that I told myself I was only going to post pictures I really liked. Automatically that made me feel like I needed to take a really good picture, so instead I took no pictures :) makes sense, right?
So today I went outside with the single goal of taking a picture of a bird. I didn't get any bird shots at all last year and so I was determined that I NEEDED one. I wandered around the woods hoping to find some sore of stunning, exotic looking bird. Instead, all I saw was this magpie. But in defence of the somewhat unimpressive looking magpie, Wikipedia says that magpies are one of the most intelligent of all animals...
Looking forward to catching up with everyone again!
Welcome back Lauren. I always want to get a nice bird shot but I never see any really nice ones around. I like how this magpie is perched at the very top of the tree.
Great to see you back! And what a great picture to come back with! :) It looks like his balance is spot on since the tree isn't bending at all. Very nice shot!
LAAAUUREEEEEN !!! YOUR BACK :):):) !!! lol !!
and welcome back!!!!
i say you did good with your bird shot bc at least you came across a bird that didnt fly away on ya and you were able to catch him on camera :) That is always good! LOL.
Also, i did not know they are one of the most intelligent of all animals! weird!
You have been missed that's for sure. I like the bird pic and also the out of focus tree to the right too. It's a very pleasing composition against that clear blue sky. That magpie looks deep in thought doesn't it. Maybe it's thinking 'How do I perch on those blurry branches?' or other such bird thoughts that only happen in photographs.
Nice to see you, gal!!! Great capture and nice shot of this bird! Would be nice to see you whenever you could post! Wishing you and baby bump health and happiness! =)
