Thought I'd try doing some shots like I used to when I first got my hands on a dslr. Was a nice refreshing change to the norm.
C&C always welcome.

Hi Mark
I love the #3, the bird silhouette - it's simple, but unmistakable.
Well done.

great stuff Mark! nothing wrong with your PJ stuff but it's welcome change
#1 does it for me due to its abstractness.

The last shot beautifully illustrates one of the main elements of compostion...shape. Do you mind if I use the image as a training aid?

Mark - welcome back to the world of PLAY !!!! You should do it more often - refreshing in some kind of odd way
Great shots - I was kind of hoping that you were feeding the crow fruitloops ...... yum

Keep it up boyo
