Two bird photographs were selected.
Nanday Parakeets and Moon photograph
I took the original photograph in the frame as the moon was in the sky right behind me here, with the parakeets flying to the left. The photograph in the frame was taken 11/24/12, and this photograph with me in it was taken on my birthday, April 8, 2017.
Photographing birds the other day
With Richard Thompson in 2016
The legendary folk-rock musician was kind enough to pose with me and his copy of BACKYARD BIRD PHOTOGRAPHY. What fun for a Fairport Convention fan like me. I told him I was the biggest Fairport fan and he said, well, there may be three or four that are bigger than you, something like that. Funny.
The Nanday Parakeets and Moon photograph
Another Santa Monica Mountains Visitor Center Exhibition photograph. A good friend of mine purchased this one and he photographed me with it before I gave it to him. Nice to have support.
