Just wanted to say that my buddy icon is my personal pet African grey JO JO.. He's not chained and his wings are not clipped.

I love nature and all living things including animals, plants, birds, insects...everything. I have recently wanted to start serious photography,. Although I have taken many pictures of places and things I have seen, it was just clicking the button on the camera. Now I have joined the Digital Photography Club run by Mr. Darren Rowse, and am starting to understand a bit more about photography.

Hope that by and by I can put up better photos.

If any one reading this has any suggestions for me they are most welcome.
