Click the picture for a zoom view
There were two pictures I wanted to post in this series before I was interrupted by work. Not that I'm free now but I've decided not to get bogged down by it. This picture incidentally was taken at work on my trip to HQ in Long Beach, CA. Every day at 4pm a group of birds comes to drink and bathe in the fountain just outside my office. Its like clockwork. 4pm sharp. The only post processing on this pic was cropping it. The bird had just come up for air after dunking its head in the cool water (drops of water flying everywhere). I had a couple of pics of the bird with its head in the water but they didn't define the shape of the bird as well as this one did. I thought of cropping part of the bottom but wanted to include the peach reflection of the office building. Stay tuned for the last pic in this series tomorrow.

Very nice photo.
Glad to see you back and posting! This is an excellent capture. I think keeping the building colour reflected in the water was a good choice.
i like this capture. I want to get shots like this but I am always very slow with camera. kudos
nice pic.........
just dropped by thru someones link who had commented on one of my pics.
real nice picture. the focus is at the RIGHT place...a flash would have surely helped capture the details of the bird in focus even better. were you close to the bird or u had to zoom in?
