Gonna be offline for a few weeks friends. Hit by an unexpected issue that saw me hospitalised last week. Gonna take a few weeks too recover.

In the meantime, I’ll be looking forward to all your nature/bird photography/art etc. To help keep me close to what I love.

Something funny to leave you with from earlier this year. ‘Bombs Away’.

Take care all, enjoy getting out with nature.

    Thank you for the compliment. The heron is hardly a rare bird around here but I thought it’s nice to see their feet aswell for a change. 😄

      @lovely_Natur_und_Kultur@cultur.social wildlife photography doesn’t have to be about the rare. Take me, now and the I see something rare, but on a day to day basis I mainly see common birds. Oh, I love herons. Magestic and amusing birds.

        You are right, of course! @JimsPhotos@ohai.social
        I think the challenge for photography is to find a new perspective or just to see what is interesting in something you get to see very often. If you really watch and take interest nothing in nature ever gets boring… I cannot help it I love all animals, plants and fungi. 💚

          @lovely_Natur_und_Kultur@cultur.social photography has to be secondary to experience of nature. I want people to actually care for the nature, rather than care for the perfect shot. The more people care for nature, the better chance of saving it will be. Keep up you passion, it’s important.
