Planning Ahead
Temperature is 64º F as I write this blog 1:00 pm. It’s sunny and pleasantly warm, I spent some time shooting some pictures in my backyard and planning of what to do about my bird feeders and what will be the best angles to get a great background color and bokeh. All those factors are important in order to get a good photo. You must always remember that all these happen in my backyard. So I do plan and prepare for all my shots believe it or not.
I’ve just discovered that my garden hose is shot and beyond repair, I was cleaning up my deck and flower pots and I wanted to pressure wash it and my hose connector from the housing busted and water just wastes away. I need a new one now! Oh…C’est la vie!

Awesome shots, well done !
Thank you! 🙂
Lovely images HJ. Glad you are back online. I assume all is ok again now?
Kind of…On Wed. afternoon a new server will be installed and I will cancel the previous one. I’m managing to upload meanwhile. Thanks Dave! 🙂
Glad its all worked out and your birds are back on-line!
I’m not out of the woods yet but after Wednesday I’ll have a new server provider. Thanks Victor! 🙂
I love the last shot most.
Thanks Tom! 🙂
Beautiful! No doubt your birds have come to associate the camera with food and consequently they smile a lot! 🙂
That’s quite an astonishing analysis Lisa, how did you figure out my bird brain domination techniques? 🙂 Thanks dear!
Who’s dominating who? Don’t you know it’s all part of the Birds’ Plan to Make You Feed Them? 🙂
