Well, the title of the photo says it all...
There certainly are many other species that could challenge the male Ruby-crowned Kinglet as the "king" of spring, but he has enthusiastically and vehemently claimed the title, flashing his namesake ruby crest all the while. What modesty...
My Honey is sure the reason I was able to get this picture is because I have "strange" bird-like behaviors of my own! This is one of three that were hanging near a pond and let me slowly approach. Standing, these are about 4 ft.
Sandhill cranes (Grus canadensis) are long legged, long necked, gray, heron-like birds with a patch of bald red skin on top of their head. Cranes are monogamous breeders.
Cranes are quite omnivorous feeding on seeds, grain, berries, insects, earthworms, mice, small birds, snakes, lizards, frogs, crayfish, but do not "fish" like herons.
Resident sandhill cranes are usually seen in very small groups or pairs. In November and December, however, large flocks of northern cranes move in, more than doubling the population in the state and then leave during March and April. The sandhill crane is a close relative to the nearly extinct whooping crane, which is being reintroduced into the state. Young sandhills weigh about twelve pounds, males are larger than females, but external markings are identical. Cranes live to be older than most birds, some reaching 20 years old.
modesty, ideal love, and simple beauty.

Polaroid SX-70 Sonar + Timezero (expired 10/06).
It must be something about these sheltering-in-place times that creates the urge to cast off all constraints . . . and that goes for outerwear as well!
At least as much as good taste will permit! :-)
I photographed this beautiful marble statue last week, while visiting the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, in Glasgow.
Paris is covered in naked Neo-classical statuary, at least the modesty of these statues in the Jardin des Tuileries is partly preserved by the hedges.........

From Wikipedia : "The Tuileries Garden (French: Jardin des Tuileries) is a public garden located between the Louvre Museum and the Place de la Concorde in the 1st arrondissement of Paris. Created by Catherine de' Medici as the garden of the Tuileries Palace in 1564, it was eventually opened to the public in 1667 and became a public park after the French Revolution. In the 19th and 20th centuries, it was a place where Parisians celebrated, met, strolled, and relaxed."

Our Mexican Riviera cruise aboard Carnival's ship "The Pride"
At 17 feet, this statue of David wasn't to hard to miss while
dining at David's restaurant. He was the most photographed
object on the ship. Except people taking pictures of one another.
I used to look like him, but over the years I shrunk to 6' 2"
The pink skirted panties with pink lace camisole offer some modesty while being a bit sexy and VERY girly !

Great photography requires dedication, time and effort.
But above all there are costs involved as well.
Equipment, props and model fees, not to mention time,
are all "out-of-pocket" expenses for the artist.

A Cham woman poses for the camera at a sand dune in Phan Rang, central Vietnam. The Chams are muslims and the women wear headscarves. This woman was a bit shy at first but after a few minutes and some encouragement she began to relax and open up in front of the camera. I like how her headscarf kept part of her face in the shade.
A ghoonghat is a headcovering or headscarf, worn in the Indian subcontinent, by some married Hindu, Jain and Sikh women to cover their heads, and often their faces.
In ghoonghat practice, facial veiling observed by married women is known as Laaj (Sanskrit: लज्जा, Lajja - modesty, honor). In veiling practice, it literally means "To keep (one's) modesty, shame and honor".
There is nothing so good that can not be improved ...

"Modesty is invisibility...Never forget it. To be seen--to be seen--is to be...penetrated. What you must be girls, is impenetrable."
— Margaret Atwood
... and setting modesty aside, I sometimes can't believe that there is a man, me, behind these photos! What I mean is that regardless of beauty values, which is subjective, I don't find too many traces of the man I am, in Cristy's images.
This is the case for so many of us and it is admirable how proficient we can get in the art of feminine illusion; with the proper use of countless enhancers. Most of the enhancers are used by women but some are specific for men who want to look like women. Thank God for female vanity and present day technology!

... y dejando la modestia por un lado, a veces no puedo creer que sea un hombre, yo, el que está detrás de estas fotos! Lo que quiero decir es que sin entrar en valores de belleza, que son subjetivos, me cuesta encontrar rasgos del hombre que soy, en las fotos de Cristy.
Este es el caso de la mayoría de nosotras y es admirable lo diestras que nos podemos volver en le arte de la ilusión femenina; con la ayuda de incontables artilugios. La mayoría de estos artilugios son utilizados por las mujeres pero algunos son específicos para hombres que pretendemos lucir como mujeres. ¡Hay que dar gracias a Dios por la vanidad femenina y por la tecnología actual!

There is a special kind of smile that does not reject a compliment — it simply pretends to be modest for one more second.
A small pause, closed eyes, a softened face.
The compliment has already reached her, but the answer still keeps its gentle playfulness.
Dedicated to Lelya, goddess of love.
