… shortly after we got shots of the Owls, we continued into the depths of the back bay and came on a small herd of wild donkeys feeding and drinking water from the lake … there are hundreds of wild donkeys in the area around the lake and I have seen and photographed many of them. One donkey stood out from the rest in that he had the most beautiful ears I have ever seen on a donkey … stunning is the word that came to mind when I looked at him. So I spent time to get the pose and shot I wanted and this is it. Along with the owl and many other shots we got, this one was worth the trip. A not uncommon animal with uncommonly beautiful features … especially the ears.
Today was one of those days it is just fun to be alive … no idea why, but it has and continues to be so.
Maybe an aerial shot tomorrow. The aerial shots like other forms of landscape photography are timeless to us. Not much happens to change the features of earth during our short life spans, so the shots I took years ago still look the same today as when I took them. Over the years I would upload a shoot, do a quick look through them and stop at the first one that caught my eye; thus I have thousands of very good shots that I have not looked at in a serious manner since I took them … a near unending pool of beautiful aerial shots. Tomorrow night we’ll see what happens as I go through some of them.
Have a beautiful day and smile, you are here..
Cheers,
Ted
