Once you have mastered normal picots and downward picots, mirrored picots are a simple affair. Close mirrored picots will quickly become a favourite embellishment in your crochet.
Marvelous photography. I struggle to capture good bird shots. Please come visit my Wordless linkup at http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2015/04/french-corner-bakery.html
Avian subjects are some of my favorites. :) These are great shots - perching birds are the hardest for me to photograph, with their quick little movements!
Lovely shots and I love seeing birds from around the world. Are thornbirds common birds? Thank you for adding a totally new (to me) bird to #AnimalTales
Yes they're everywhere here, but it's hard to tell them apart from lots of other small brown birds unless you can get a photo to see the details. (well for me it is) I do feel like I was cheating a bit linking this up to Animal Tales this week, I thought I had an animal post to share but then I couldn't find it..
Beautiful photography - so crisp and clean I almost feel the feathers! Thanks for sharing at http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-bubble-man.html
I was quite surprised when the wings weren't a complete blur, the shot was in the shadows and I wasn't game to increase the shutter speed any more then that.

Practice, lots and lots of practice and even more patience.
DeleteI love how sharp his (her?) eye is! They are such delicate creatures.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining us again this week for Photo Friday!
I have no idea if it's a male or female or even what type of thornbill it is. It's the first time I've ever managed to capture one in flight though.

ReplyDeleteYou need fast shutter speed and lots of luck!
DeleteGreat photographs, especially the action shot. #AnimalTales
ReplyDeleteThanks Ian. It's my first success on getting a small bird in flight.
DeleteWhat lovely captures! I only manage to take photos of birds from afar, but then again, I only have a point and shoot camera :) #animaltales.
ReplyDeleteIt's had to get birds without a zoom lens.
DeleteTwo really fantastic images. Superb.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice of you to say so. You take truly lovely shots yourself.
DeleteAlways a fantastic capture from you! #AnimalTales
ReplyDeleteThank you :o)
DeleteGreat picture! Love the detail of the open wing feathers.
ReplyDeleteI wish it had been a bit sharper. Fingers crossed for next time.
