I like very much how the branches frame the little one :) beautiful capture! #1110595Johnnie Ann Gaskill April 07, 2009
Thanks, Daniella! I like that, too. Just wish I had had time to tilt the camera up just a bit more to get the branch that was overhead! But I was in a hurry to capture the image before the bird flew away. #7383858Michelle Alton April 08, 2009
Beautifully done, Johnnie. Unique! #7384233Johnnie Ann Gaskill April 08, 2009
Thanks, Michelle! I'm not sure what kind of bird this is. My husband thinks it is a bee martin. He/she and the mate have returned to the nest they built last year on our front porch. #7384442Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
