Just for Pix!

Here's a tag from Sam. Who got me onto this one with 'a-not-so-kind' reminder not so long ago.He he! I cannot get down to working without a deadline, or a reminder of the 'not-so-kind' kinds. Apologies, Sam!

Here's the dope. Upload the sixth pic from your sixth photo folder. Yep, it took me a while to figure this one. So here it is.



This was my first attempt at bird photography. And I must admit, since this photo was taken two years back, I've made little progress at either, finding birds {That's an honest pun! And it is targeted at one of the readers!(wink!) The other 9 may kindly ignore this one!} or photography. So this one happens to be special, because I actually woke at 5 in the morning(can you believe it?), and drove all the way to KBR Park and then shot this one. It didn't come out as well as I thought it would. I mean it was difficult adjusting my lens and inching closer to the Peacock, through a little pathway that was beset on all sides by thorny shrubs, without alarming it. I could tell you a lot more but then that would take the word-count to 1223. That’s also including the picture. Don’t you agree? :D

Here’s tagging Perf, Kida, and everyone else willing to be a sport!

I read the post, figured out how you've now switched to bird(do they call it 'game'?) hunting from bird watching and then went into my sixth photo folder to see the sixth photo. It's you reading a cosmo. I'll let that pass, dearie. In the spirit of birding. :)

PS. There might be a clue for you out here somewhere. The word verification thingy reads: Juddy

ha ha ha!
no no, please do the tag. I don't mind people being entertained at the expense of me in ara's glasses, posing with your cosmo. ;)

Besides what's to hide, if it's already on FB, :D

FYI, I even use it as my userpic!
:P

@Pallavi: I don't think I've carried my camera since this picture was taken. :P

I don't know why, but I could never get myself to carry a camera on any of my trips. Though I do wanna go to Kanha, and corbett for sure. I'll just leave the shooting to others. :P

I guess, I am crazzy about clicking... when the camera is in my hands I just can't stop...and though I am a very pathetic photographer for me its just capturing moments from b'day parties to birds whatever comes my way...
