Some people get hamburger and fries, I get a bird photo through the window.
I read a discussion on thanking people on their comments. So I'm thanking everyone here for all the terrific comments. I read every word and appreciate them, but am trying it this way and hope not to offend anyone.
this as an amazing shot sparrows are always too quick for me :( and i dont mind you saying thank you but this way is good to, do you mind if i thank you?
And probably a lot of stares from the other customers. Look at that crazy lady, but hey, that's who we are, right? We enjoy the beauty all around us. You captured a wondeful shot of this cute bird.
This is a sweet emotive photo. I love the pose of the sparrow. You can really see the characteristics of this bird. Maggie you follow and are followed by so many whenever you comment onmy shots I feel very touched. It is hard to keep a balance and I think you should do whatever feels right to for you. I will always follow your shots and you don't need to thank me. I am happy to share my thoughts.
@digitalrn Rick, there was a little guy in McDonalds that came over and asked if the pictures came out right then. I showed him the pictures I had taken on the LCD screen and he suggested if I stepped back, I could get the entire bush. Very cute little guy. So we crazy photographers influence the next generation of crazy photographers.
@hdoyle@semrants Helen, and Sarah, I'm not sure what to do myself. I so enjoy reading peoples comments and that they even take the time to look. I hate not to say thank you, but don't want to annoy anyone. LOL I know the discussion was not intended to offend anyone or criticize it was just to make things more efficient.
very nice shot of this one. beautiful detail. Not sure which sparrows you get on the other side of the continent, but it looks (& behaves- hanging out at restrauants) like our House Sparrows.
What a stunning sparrow shot! I love those little birds!
I'm happy if this is the way to thank people, I give the same idea a try. I look at your pictures every day, so I'll see them every time.
FABULOUS Maggie - gosh so many great shots from you recently - another fav. yeh, that thanking thing - tricky to balance it with our urge to appreciate all these lovely comments, but that works well for me. I'm thankful to you for just putting up such lovely shots!!
Lovely capture - and better for you than burgers and fries! He's got such pretty colours, and there's great DOF in this pic too :)
The thanking thing is definitely tricky. I'm very time-limited, so I choose to spend my available time commenting on the many beautiful pics on 365, rather than thanking everyone specifically on my pages. Most of my wonderful followers keep coming back each day, so I guess they're ok with the deal :)
Thak you Margaret. If you want this rose for your study I am ahppy to email it to you. Just let me know. You know what is very tough (for me) - shooting red roses. They seem either to bright or too dark. I have to try multiple setting and see what happens.
Wow - this MacDonalds bird has been nearly as popular as the fries! Haven't ever noticed anything photo- worthy at my fast food drive through, but I'd better start opening my eyes.

Thank you for sparing me the "thank you" notification.
