Default A flower and an old bird..

No, the old bird isn't me Lol... I just have been too busy lately to get out and shoot. So, I decided to post a couple of my older images that I've shared before. Hope you like.

Fred, hope you'll get back on a more user-friendly work schedule! Beautiful colors on the flower and a great background on the bird. I like these!

A flower and an old bird..

Beautiful flowers should always be given to beautiful birds !!, that way they build beautiful nests.
Fred, they may be oldies but they are also goodies. The bird is my favoured one here, lovely texture, lovely colours, lovely picture, great work mate

I like the little bird picture, the way the feathers are, I feel that I could reach in and stroke them, so real.

Fred I am glad you did re-post as I have not seen these! The second shot is amazing, crisp and crystal clear. Beautiful shot Fred!
