Bird Out of Focus but still...
I took this photo earlier in the year... I haven't taken many pics since then. The photo was taken from about 50 yards out on a cloudy bright day... the bird is out of focus because I had to shoot hand held with a 600mm telephoto lens and through a bunch of weeds but I still like it! I hope you see some merit in it too... beauty is sometimes in the eye of the beholder!
P.S. I had to do some cropping too...
Bird in the Rye... Maybe not...
It’s easy to see why you like it, the colors and lines are very appealing. Having the songbird in focus would be a big bonus but sometimes you get what you got.
I think you've captured a mood here. There is a dreamy quality with the shallow DOF, the delicate patterns of the weeds and the softness of the bird. Definitely a keeper in my opinion.
I like this. I would rather have this blurry than not have it at all.

Thanks MichaelEBM for your comment... sorry for the late response but it has been a crazy time these last few weeks...
crazier than usual... notice that I used the word "usual" instead of "normal", but we had to sort out where to go visit
on Christmas Eve and Christmas day... we have immediate family, other blood relatives, and in-laws whom all invited us over
for Xmas Eve and on Xmas day! We had breakfast, lunch, and supper (suffer) the same day at different locations on both days!!!
But everything considered, we had a happy, fun-filled Christmas with everyone! Although the food was great, I had to take
Pepto Bismuth to calm an overly full stomach on both days!!! I hope you had a great time this Christmas, and an upcoming Happy,
Healthy, and fun filled, Safe New Year!!!

Thanks Michael for your comment... Somehow I missed your comment... I haven't been on UHH very much in the last two years... just got too busy and got out of the habit of getting on... but since the world has been turned upside down and we have been on lock down I decided to get back on UHH and was reviewing my posts to see if I had answered all prior comments... well I have run into a slew of unanswered post and trying to answer them... most have probably forgot and will be surprised that I am back online and answering old post and reposting some of my old posts... well enough for now... I am getting back to answering all of my unanswered post... stay safe and I hope that you, family, and friends stay healthy and happy... bye for now...!!!
