Pinky the parrot wasnt up for her picture being taken today, she got all shy and bashful.

How do you get all of these great shots?
On "The Genius of Photography" on BBC4 they talked about a tog who had everything happen in front of him, the world would wait for him to reload, then the action would start again.
Either you have that ability or you have too much patience!

Lol..Thanks Merv, i definately dont have the ability to make the world wait for me! what a talent that would be

patience?..well i have to admit that has more to do with it i suppose, this shot took about an hour, which isnt a long time when it comes down to working with animals, it just means studying the subject, picking up on its mood and waiting for that fleeting moment when you grab the shot...or not, on alot of occassions

Hi Bev, I have to say what a great shot!!! Not only from a Monty Python fan but also a lover of photography. Mont Python has been on public broadcasting tv in the US for some time now. (the learning channel) Although I have a little trouble with the accent. I have to learn to have more patience. If I don't get lucky with a shot I give up to soon. You have proven time and again it is worth the time. Love your work. Art
