Capture: “These are New Zealanders” -…, in reply to Hilary Stace,
Now these ones bring tears to my eyes... must be the Polish blood trilling in my veins. I love all of Pascoe's work... the 6x6 format in black and white and the way he got so close to so many rich emotions and how raw life was back then. Have always adored the poise and energy of the woman in that last photo that Jonathan has featured. Lovely to see them here...

This looks cool, but I still want Deckard's thingamijiggy in Blade Runner.

How funny Joe, I was in Rawson Street for a wee while, just off Anderson Park. Know that corner of Sydney well.
gorgeous birds Sophie and Nora... heard something unusual singing today, for the first time, but couldn't see what it was.

south of the Bombay Hills?
Technically north... I am just north of Sydney in Australia. Loving your beautiful images in the snow - I can feel it's snowing somewhere south of here but we are too close to the coast.

These threads become bright tapestries of life... snow and monarchs!
No snow here but these trees are flowering...almost snow blankets.

gorgeous morning birdsong
Thanks Joe, that made my morning cup of tea all the more memorable, like fatty was in my garden! I found this amazing recording which is middle of the night and one beautiful solo songstress... truly beautiful but I can definitely say I have not heard one Butcherbird in the wild yet. Maybe we have the wrong trees.

this bird in Kew Gardens
what a beauty!
we have commoners too. Aussie birds are pretty but they tend to have very harsh and sometimes disturbing calls (like whips and whistles and shrieks) - not much of that gorgeous birdsong that fills the bush back home - something I still miss.

point and shoot
my stalking technique is improving (not my framing though). These little old dudes were cruising along until I got too close and they veered away. I think they are Little Corellas - can't see their beaks too well and there are a few types of corellas.
