… a state of happiness and here we do it in the color blue. The upper image is a shot of a Mountain Bluebird just taking to flight and we can see the reflection of his feet and upper legs in the water below. The purity of the color of the Mountain Bluebird ranks it number one for me. Close behind is the Western Bluebird which is pictured below as he is coming in for a landing, and his anisodactyl feet moved forward to absorb the shock when he lands. Most song and perching birds have anisodactyl feet … three toes and talons in front and one in the back. The shadows of his wings, body and talons on the ground beneath and behind him,
A perfect day today as it was spent with friends … work on projects put off until tomorrow and then it is nose to the grindstone time … visualizing images for the title and credits for the show at the Mary Fisher and of course One will be featured … perhaps she will take over another black hawk, hijack a jet, or? It will happen!
Into the weekend for me and back on Monday … seek beauty ,,, share your joy … believe in goodness and smile.
