Cell Pick Sunday – Blue Heron
The area of Atlanta, GA we live in is surrounded by several county, state and federal parks and it’s not unusual to see a Blue Heron or two (2) circling above the river or fishing in a feeder stream. Last week on our Sunday walk, this fella flew over us and landed on the stream below the bridge we were standing on. He was so still but looked as though he was getting ready to take flight. Fortunately, I was able to snap a quick photo with my cell phone.
What I like about this image is how the water, rocks, leaves and branches all seem to perfectly frame him. Since I used my Android phone, I did have to make a few adjustments in Photoshop Elements to bring out the colors and details of the Fall leaves. Still, it turned out to be a decent image (just don’t zoom in too closely 😉).
Until next time,

“There is no Finer Joy…”
“There is no finer thing than the joy a garden brings.” ~unknown
I have to admit, my little garden brings me so much joy beyond the growing and blooming flowers. It’s watching mother nature getting the benefit from it too! Like this little Song Sparrow gathering coconut grass from the planters to build a nest.
Are you seeing the full joy in your garden, today?
