Day 203 – July 22, 2018
Esthete – WODC / Essential – FOWC / Time – RDP / Macro – #Sunday Stills / Nature – One Word Photo Challenge / #MySundayPhoto / Summer Daze – One Word Photo Challenge / Action – One Word Sunday
Talk about esthete. I have really taken a liking to photographing birds in nature, if you haven’t noticed. It may not be the most exciting subjects to catch on film. It takes a lot of patience, I have found, of which I am in short supply. Especially since my MacBook is one of those with the keyboard issue and I have to keep going back to fix words that have missing or altered letters. In any case, time seems to slow down, as you wait for some action at the bird feeders, which are an essential, in my opinion. When you finish shooting. for the day, time, it seems, was not as slow as you thought, and you feel as though you have just wasted a lot of time in a summer daze. These may not be taken with a macro lens. Which is why I featured the hummingbird. I think it would really be awesome to get close enough to take a macro lens to them (sorry Terri 😯, it’s a huge stretch 😬, but I will make it up this week!🤗 ). I took a bunch of other photos today, in between the storms (so much more rain😳), and I didn’t want them to go to waste, so I have included a few others that I am very happy with. Hoping you have a terrific week!

Your birds are well captured forever in digi-land! Any close-up of a bird is worth celebrating and yes, your patience held out for these great shots! Always happy to see your multiple challenges featured that include #SundayStills!

That is hilarious. You could always go into a pet store! That would be free. 😘 I need to start planning my photos ahead. It would make it so much easier if I knew/ or at least have an idea before I go out everyday. 900+ posts later and I am still learning! 😳💕

Lol, pet store sounds fun – but then, I’ll will want to adopt/shop everything that I see there! (Which of course my Huz wouldn’t like!) 😉 😛

I’m not allowed to go in anywhere that sells dogs. I’m not allowed to look through classifieds. I’m a sucker for pups (don’t know if you watch fixer upper, but I’m Chip when it comes to animals) 😳😬😂

I tend to assume most watch it. I tend to reference it a lot. It’s probably why most don’t “get me” 😂 as a blogger or in person 😳

Sad thing is I can actually watch the same ones constantly. There are a couple that I tend to skip, but those are few and far between. 🤩

Oh I love golf. I’ve even started to watch it on tv! I prefer to play. (I get bored after about an hour but I would never have even stopped, unless it was Tiger).
