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 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.

This shot has your usual excellent clarity, but what I really love about this is the way the dove is bathed in that wonderful, warm, golden light. Beautiful.

Supershot....great closeup and snuggled right up next to eggray's and EJ's birds...to name just two of the great birders on here...in my birds fave file. This was perfect lighting for the colors he sports.
Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.
