2 more pictures and one note above! :)

Since the weather has been so nice, I've been going for walks along our ridge line almost every day with Moosie and Zoe. I don't always bring my camera but I did today, and had such a nice time puttering along and looking for subjects to present themselves.

We were walking along and I noticed something bright near the ground--this amazing feather! The light was hitting it just right and before the breeze blew it away, I managed to get a set of pictures. When it fell over, I picked it up and took another set of images (and carried it home to add to our wild bird feather collection!).

Of the two pictures, I think this image is more magical, and it's also almost straight out of the camera--the only thing I did was a slight crop of about 15%. I love the natural sepia tones here too--I didn't alter this color at all! :)
