Excellent shots of a very pretty bird. K.

It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera… they are made with the eye, heart and head. Henri Cartier-Bresson
Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Late in. Great images Don. You seem to get all of the best looking birds over there.

Best regards

These have really attractive colours, and the background has an unusual hue that is very appealing, as well as being superbly blurry. Excellent sharp little birdy as well!
