What you see is what you get……. birds, animals, and all sorts of things, but remember; Work for a cause, not for applause. Live life to express, not to impress. Don't strive to make your presence noticed, just make your absence felt. .

The flow of the golden water is what enhances this bird by its surroundings! Love the reflections of the bird in the water. Fantastic photography. You are brilliant in what you capture! I’m losing myself today in your Blog. Can you tell? lol
The gold reflection of the water is very pretty and unique. I’ll be keeping an eye out for similar reflections in my travels. Interesting birds as always 🙂
I wear reading glasses now and I find that when I look through the camera’s viewfinder to shoot a picture, I often miss the real beauty until I down load the photo!
I have cataract problems now so the view finder is not my best friend… can take 100 odd photos on an incorrect setting.. I’ll only know when I get to down load… but they say getting old is not for sissies so I just laugh about it…
Have to get around to setting a date for the op on the eyes.. but I’m scared shitless…
It became more obvious when I downloaded the photos.. whilst in the hide I could just see the reeds… thank you.. wish it was gold could make retirement just that little easier…

The golden light is wonderful and so are the birds a perfect combination!
Thank you…
Thanks for making me grin from ear to ear…..love!
My pleasure
It looks just like someone’s big toe! Hahaha…
It does a bit…lol
WOW!
I agree thanks
The flow and golden tonal qualities of the water, just brilliant Bulldog! The duck is enhanced by his/her surroundings, so very lovely!
Thanks Penny… just something I only noticed when I down loaded the photos…
I found it mezmerizing Bulldog. And most effective as well!
Lovely! Gorgeous light 🙂
Thanks Inga
I’m in awe of these beautiful colours, Bulldog! 😀
I agree Dianne… did not really notice it till I down loaded the photos…
You are so right bulldog. Gold it is and captured so beautifully! Great shots my friend. Love them! 😀 *hugs*
Thanks Sonel… maybe I should have scooped some of it up…
Maybe you should have..hehehe.

Thanks Ingrid… The colours did not look gold to my eye, but sure did on the camera…
Love the molten gold effect, bulldog. Great photos again. 🙂
Thanks AD…
Like the effects of the reflections and the gentle movement of the waters.
Thanks Brian..
It does look so pretty bulldog. I especially like the photos where the gold is interspersed with blue!
I like those as well… I didn’t really realise the effect till I down loaded the photos…

Yeah the eyes are important so it’s much scarier to think about a doctor messing there than almost anywhere else!
That must be a beautiful place to sit and watch the birds.
It is .. and there are very seldom any others there during the week…
Fantastic….AGAIN!!!! I just got finished praising you in my latest post.
Thank you Danny…
What a lovely place for some fantastic shots!! I can certainly understand why it’s one of yoru favourite places :).
It is only 5 minutes from my house and a bird hide so comfortable that allows one to get so close un detected… love the spot…
What incredibly fantastic photographs. You really are talented.
Thank you for such a nice comment…
wow it really does! Makes you just want to dip in and scoop some out – seriously looks like gold floating in there – especially the last one.
It became more obvious when I downloaded the photos.. whilst in the hide I could just see the reeds… thank you.. wish it was gold could make retirement just that little easier…
Nice pictures and some lovely reflections of the birds in the water. (Suzanne)
