… this diminutive dark headed junko was running up a perch that my friend Eric has in his backyard and I spent the last two mornings shooting the birds and critters that he feeds on a daily basis. Little wonder that I have none in my yard, but of course if I put out food for them, I am sure that I would get a few.
Back to the junko … immediately after this frame he took a hard right turn and went into flight and I captured the first half second of his flight … six more shots … but I like this one the best with him seemingly heading up the runway and into flight over the abyss.
Behind in emails again and hope to catch up over the next few days … sorry.
I have friends who are displaying in the Sedona Visual Arts Coalition 2020 Exhibit at the Sedona Art Center in uptown, beginning February 4th. Liz Learmont with her life sculpture/masks, Clark Sheppard with his beautiful paintings, Paul Kanter with his great photography and Mary Helsaple who is one of the finest artists I have known in just about every medium. There is going to be a reception on February 7th between 5 and 8 in the evening at the art center; enjoy meeting the artists and take a look at their beautiful creations.
Busy week almost underway … enjoy the moment, for in that moment and none other, you are alive!
Cheers,
Ted
Filled with dreams and songs and love, I wander afield.
Meditation, softened by the peaceful lands of grain and
the illimitable blue sea overhead, draws my heart to
my lips as one whose talent is in song.
I yield to the thousand felicities of this transport, like a
child led by his father’s hand; and no questions darken
this day of my content.
