So the plan this morning was to try and capture some small bird portraits for the ARPS submission. I knew just the spot in Calke Abbey and so I set out with the best of intentions. However, whilst I captured some interesting small bird portraits these were not the photographs that made the day. No, instead it was the cowslips and great spotted woodpecker, hardly a small bird. This is what happens when you go out into the real world rather than working in a studio. You just have to go with the flow – long may that last.
One final thought about the title of this post. Where I used to work they had a rather brutal filter system to internet surfing. One morning I was looking up a web site about stolen working digs, a very legitimate search. However this was blocked by filter as the site contained a banded word. And the word was ‘bitch’. It is hard to see how a web site about stolen female working dogs could not use the word bitch. In everything context matters.
