Two in the Air

A photo of two rock doves as they move through space by the power of flight. This is my submission into Leanne Cole‘s “Monochrome Madness” for this week. Participating is pretty straightforward and something I recommend. If you do, then include … Continue reading

Ibis Walking

I was in Centennial Park yesterday afternoon which gave me the opportunity to get this photo. There’s nothing particularly good about it; it’s competent, but I like ibes and so I wanted to share this photo. I hope you enjoy.

Direction Up

I’m not sure why this silver gull did this particular pose. Then again, I may be remembering this incorrectly and it wasn’t so much a stop as it was a brief hold before completing the motion. I hope you enjoy.

Silver Gull Landing

A rather lucky photo, albeit one with what I feel is too much noise. I like how this sort of feels odd in a way. The gull feels like it’s more angular than usual, and as though its proportions are … Continue reading

Starling Leaving a Bollard

Flying to the Top

One of those lucky shots. Not the best of photos, but I like it as it’s just a thing that’s happening and it’s probably one of the most mundane things ever, but it’s still really interesting, I think. I hope … Continue reading

Gull, Wings Down

This silver gull was flying along The Cooks River. It was lucky that the photo turned out as it was much darker, though admittedly the background isn’t that relevant so I probably could’ve left the shot as dark as it … Continue reading

Corvus coronoides in flight

Behold! an Australian raven flying to some place. To a sign I believe. This one was seen around La Perouse and I found it odd to be so close to the ocean, but seeing as I don’t know much about … Continue reading
