The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking. - Brooks Anderson

A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile
the moment a single man contemplates it,
bearing within him the image of a cathedral.
Life is not always pretty, but sometimes, someone smiles at you. Kate
All of earth is crammed with heaven And every bush aflame with God But only those who see take off their shoes. - Elizabeth Barrett Browning<p>

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.

That's really quite a sight! You must have a pretty decent zoom. We have quite a few Osprey around here but I'm yet to get a good shot of one. Ditto to all of the above. Great capture, clarity, pose...
What a pasture Robert. I hope your friend returns for and encore so we get to see more captures like this one! S/he is really sitting on top of the world, eh? I love the wing span. So elegant and powerful. Very well done. Thank you for sharing this with me ;=)

'Tis nothing but a Magic Shadow-show,
Play'd in a Box whose Candle is the Sun,
Round which we Phantom Figures come and go.

"'Life is not a journey to the grave with the
intention of arriving safely in a pretty
and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up,
totally worn out,
and loudly proclaiming,
"WOW! What a ride!"'
