Deep Clean

Posted on September 24, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Just a photo of an ibis cleaning itself. I’m not sure as to why I didn’t share this sooner. It’s easy enough on the eyes and due to being a simple, pleasing shot. I like how part of the ibis’ … Continue reading →

In the Midst of a Step

Posted on September 20, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

The same Porphyrio melanotus as this one. This shot was taken shortly before the prior one. I’m not sure as to why I felt the need to mention that. I was trying to get a shot of the bird mid-step. … Continue reading →

Porphyrio melanotus in Motion

Posted on September 18, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Yesterday afternoon I went on a short cycle. During the cycle I saw this Australasian waterhen underneath a transmission tower looking for food as I passed on by. On my way back home the waterhen was still there so I … Continue reading →

Streptopelia chinensis

Posted on September 14, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

I think this is a different spotted dove than the last one I took a photo of, but in the same area a few minutes later. This one was cleaning itself whilst I was taking photos. I think for a … Continue reading →

Going for a Walk

Posted on September 12, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

A shot of a spotted dove (Streptopelia chinensis) walking along a roof. I think this shot gives a sense of distance quite nicely. I also think the colour isn’t too harsh and helps to give the scene a relaxed feel … Continue reading →

Cockatrio

Posted on September 10, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Three cockatoos I saw a few weeks ago whilst walking home. I think this photo is about space and form. I do like that the cockatoos have different positions (wing-wise) to each other. I also like how small they feel … Continue reading →

Side Duck

Posted on September 4, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Another photo of a duck. I like this photo because it looks odd. To me the duck looks like it’s longer than how it would normally appear. I also like the clarity in most of the feathers, as well as … Continue reading →

Out for a Stroll

Posted on August 30, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

Here’s a shot of an Ibis walking around looking for something to eat. This photo feels a bit moody to me. Might be the lighting. It’s simple and presents the Ibis’ elegance and grace quite well, I think. This is … Continue reading →

Eating Time

Posted on August 29, 2020 by Stupidity Hole

This was taken a few days ago whilst walking along The Cooks River. For most of the time this galah was eating very little of its body was visible. It was quite cute. I hope you enjoy.
