for a quick snooze. At this point, the aviary has been open about 15 minutes to the public. She's worn out already. On the stairs to the observation platform, Lowry Park Zoo, Tampa Bay.
I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

Wow, for a minute I thought she was a decoy(in the thumbnail). What a fantastic close up of this beautiful duck. See, Donna wasn't sure she was real either. Maybe because she is sitting there so still and pretty. Wonderful shot!
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

I'm very far behind in my comments due to some recent family issues so please forgive this generic comment. I have viewed this image and found it to be very good. I didn't want to pass it by with out mentioning it's beauty. Thank you for sharing it with us. You have created a very beautiful image and I envy your talent. I hope to view more of your work and give a more personal comment in the near future. Your images are awsome. Very good close-up image.

Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.
