Finches

On Thanksgiving Day we went through the nursing home and I got a chance to photograph some of the birds in the finch habitat on the second floor.
At first I was just using the shorter telephoto but had to get too close to the glass. It was obvious the birds were a little upset. I also wasn't able to zero in on any of the birds like I wanted too. So, I grabbed my longer zoom so I could put a little more distance between myself and the birds.
Here are my results. Most of these will be going up on Viewbug Monday.







I hope you enjoyed these images. Have a great day.

Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving Day to all of my readers.
We went to spend some time at the nursing home with Susan's mother. There was also a dinner via the nursing home kitchen.
Here is Susan and her mother before we went down to the dinner.

I decided to photograph some of the others who were in dining room.



  
What Thanksgiving dinner is complete without pumpkin pie? This frame I could almost use as an advertising image.

This was dinner.

I hope you're having a wonderful day.

Framing the mountain

We were early for Susan's physical therapy so we went over to the nearby park and wanted to capture a few images. After looking around a few minutes I liked the idea of using tree branches to frame Pikes Peak. It was really cold out there though so I didn't shoot too many frames to be honest. The wind was rather biting.
Here are the results. The bottom one I just uploaded to Viewbug.




I hope you enjoyed these, have a great day.
