    Beautiful!
    I like the water drops theme.
    The clarity of the rose is stunning, I want to reach through the screen and shove my nose in it!
    Thanks

    Thanks Gilliatt, I took these photos on a rainy day. We have been experiencing cold and wet weather for the past couple of weeks or so. I’m glad you like them.

    The Gurgles said goodbye to 2012 this past weekend in the usual fashion.
    Usual fashion translates to guns, beer, explosives, vodka and fire, culminating in “Mozartgeist’s” auto de fe.

    So long 2012, you’re gonna burn

    It looks like a good time was had by all.

    Great pictures Gilliatt! Seems like you have been shooting, I hope the cows and chickens didn't get into your way.

    We had a great time and..well, admittedly not quite as wild as the picture I may have painted with my words. I didn't stray beyond beer. My brother enjoys the Vodka.
    No worries about the livestock getting in the line of fire, we always post a spotter next to the person shooting keeping an eye out for safety.

    Some pictures of the native birds that I’ve taken in the past on different locations.




    Andaman Drongo. I found it wandering outside our house.



    Little dove. It’s a daily visitor.




    Egret and I think the other bird is great cormorant, but I’m not so sure.



    This bird is called Chakor and it is quite common around here. It belongs to the family of partridge.

    Wonderful images Snowqueen.
    The Dove looks very much like our Mouning Doves.
    My favorite is the Chakor. How were you able to get so close?
    and of course the noisy Peacock haha...is this the one that loiters around your home?

    Yes, you are right it’s the same old noisy peacock.
    Chakor is extremely shy bird, but somehow I did manage to take that shot. Thanks.

    I found this recent picture of the missus among the Bigfoot conference photos .
    She is standing in front of Richard Serra's steel sculpture titled "Vortex".
    It is a permanent feature in the landscape outside the Modern Art Museum in Fort Worth Texas.

    The acoustics inside the sculpture are amazing.






    A video of a little boy and a ball inside the sculpture.
    Listen for the echoes.

    Great picture, Gilliatt. Do say hi to your missus for me.
    I can’t seem to follow your link as I have no access to youtube.
