Snowdrops in the dirt. I felt a bit strange taking this photo but you would have to read 'Pollen' by Jeff Noon to know why. In my defence I was just curious.

I took a fabulous photo of this dog a while back and was eager to get another.

The Sigma 70-300 lens was in macro mode unintentionally and the dog close. The blurring is impressive on long hair. Keeping the head in focus was hard.

I had the camera on continuous auto-focus and it kept going for the roof. By the time I switched it off the pose had changed.

The birds are up high and the camera is heavy, I took my eye off the camera and they took off. I would have proffered all 3 in the frame but I wasn't fast enough. Never mind, the colour in the 3rd bird was a bonus.

Thistle-head. I'm impressed by this photo. Thank god for EXIF data because all I remember is pressing the shutter. How will I learn if I don't know what happened.

I got up early, went for a relaxed wander, paid attention and had a better day.
I like the first bird pic. The flight looks so graceful. I don't think I like the snowdrops in black and white. And dirty snowdrops...I will have to look up Jeff Noon, I guess.
And I kind of liked the one that should be entitled "walk softly and carry a big stick". Looks like grandpa and grandson doing the same thing.
And, yes, I like the thistle too...although I'm glad it's not in person. There's too many of them around here in the fields that drift over to my yard.
