You have wonderful brown compositions! Embrace the brown! (The photographic kind, that is...)

Well I am on a roll with brown birds, here is one I took a few days ago at the Riverwalk Parkway in Riverside, CA.
The water is pretty high after a few days of strong rains in the last 2 weeks, cleaner and clearer than I remember it from being flushed by all that rain. And the park people turned on the fountain in the main pond for the first time in a very long time.
Ducks, Coots, Gulls, Cormorants a few Stilts and just as I was leaving because the sun was gone and the light failed (forgot to take my flash and better beamer) a couple of Egrets and two Black Crowned Night Herons flew in.

I was on the pier by the observation platform when this Mallard Hen landed only about 4-5 feet away on the railing. She posed nicely for her portrait (yeah, I know, she was hoping I had bread crumbs like the little old lady on the other side).

7DII, 100-400 mk II @ 105, 1/250 @ f/5.6, ISO 400 built in flash because she was back lite by the setting sun - hand held PP in LR and cropped

One I posted before in Photo Gallery and Digital Artistry, the other two were the other frames from a 3 shot series. Main difference is head position changes a little bit and I processed them in a similar way but not exactly the same.

7DII, 100-400 mkII + 1.4 mkIII @560 mm, 1/250 @ f/8.0, ISO 400 with flash at about 15 feet so heavy cropping on a smallish finch - hand held taken less than an hour before sundown with the yard in heavy shade from trees and fence to the west.

1. The Beauty of Brown Feathers #1 head upright and straight ahead
2. The Beauty of Brown Feathers #2 head down and slightly to left
3. The Beauty of Brown Feathers #3 looking a little to right and eye showing
One I posted before in Photo Gallery and Digital A... (show quote)


Absolutely love those! Great detail and lovely soft colors!

Brown is about my most un-favorite color but here is one on my way home that has a lot of brown. This was October 16 maybe the 15th 2015 after the rain was so bad that it nearly ended my time here on this planet. I was on my way home and got stuck on the road I normally take home which was flooded to the point it scared the living S..t out of me! Later that night it closed the freeway Hwy 58, for nearly a week and it trapped over 100 cars in a flash flood. But anyway once I got out of that situation thank god and this is just 10 more miles closer to my place and I saw this scene and had to stop for a photo opp. What a diverse landscape I live in because the clouds that caused all the havoc were black as night but this was quite the beautiful sight I think.
