… a great day learning how rusty my gold smithing skills are … persistence and studying techniques on YouTube and I may be turning the corner … about thirty years of neglect as I relied on others in the trade to do my work tends to reduce your skill set. Signs of hope exist 🙂
I shot the Great Egret above on Tuesday at the upper end of Castle Creek Bay and it made me wish I had my wings again as he wheeled in perfect form and departed the area. Kinda like what you see in movies like Top Gun or experience in a sailplane as you crank into a thermal or fly through cloud canyons.
The King Fisher below was leaving a perch in another quiet back water bay … once in a while they give you the opportunity to get good shots of them … mostly they depart before you can get a photo that barely qualifies as an ID photo. Always grateful for whatever I get …
Into the weekend and wishing you every joy … keep breathing and smiling … life is terrific!
Cheers,
Ted
And as I returned to my metaphysician, in the dim
of my study, I smiled; for I saw that the thing I sought
was in me, and in the child, and in the dancers, and in
him who took me by the hand.
