I have 3 words for today's post:
"Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda"
OK, you know me, I NEVER have ONLY 3 words to say.
Here's my little story for the day:
As you can tell from the date, this photo (and the ones I plan on posting for the next week or so) were taken almost 2 years ago with my little Kodak Point and Shoot. Hidden so deep in my computer, I didn't even know they existed. When I opened the file, I was in shock at how much I loved almost every single photo and yet had never posted one to Flickr. Most are not crispy sharp, and I definitely was cropping way too tight at that time. I admit alot of them were taken from the inside looking out.
At this very minute I probably have at least 3 dozen Birds (at least 6 different species) right outside my window in a feeding frenzy because I just filled the feeders and even threw seed on top of the new snow so more could eat at the same time. And yet I have given up on even trying to get any photos of them with my Nikon. I have never been satisfied with that camera as a tool for my biggest passion -- photographing my beloved Birds and Squirrels, especially having to disturb them when they are eating by going outside.
And yet I love the "professional look" of the Nikon's images. I couldn't ask for a better camera when it comes to photographing "bigger" stuff. And this past summer it allowed me to capture 4 different species of birds feeding their fledglings (Juncos, Rosie and Evening Grosbeaks, and Goldfinches) in or around the Lilac tree -- experiences that still blow me away with awe!!
So it brings me to my point:
Life is constantly changing and yet with our wonderful cameras we can go back and relive such wonderful memories from the past. They may seem "better" than now -- but they were "THEN" it is NOW. How I wish I could share my JOY this very minute with you with photos of the NOW. Trust me, I have NEVER had so many different birds in one place at the same time. Here's the list from just this morning so far: Juncos, American Goldfinches, Hairy Woodpecker, Chickadees, Titmice, Purple Finches, Blue Jays, a White-breasted Nuthatch, Mourning Doves, and BEST of all -- a little male Downy Woodpecker who hit my window 2 days ago. I was actually found myself weeping last night because he hadn't been around since his "accident" and Joy, oh Joy, he's still alive and BACK today!! Can't believe one little bird would move me so much when there are so many!
So forgive for the really "old" photos in the next few days. Maybe I'll look back and think it wasn't such a good idea, but for now they are the best I have to offer of what's in my life at this time. Just pretend the date is 2012 instead of 2010! (-:

Mi momento favorito del día es cuando llego a casa y me quito los zapatos/botas...y me pongo las zapatillas!
Foto rápida y corriendo porque me voy el finde fuera y no sé si tendré acceso a internet ni tiempo.. Comentaré vuestras fotos el domingo.
La foto tiene muchos fallos (quemada por abajo, el zapato no está del todo nítido.. es mi primera foto de mural con el 50mm!!,este finde voy a practicar mucho porque veo que hay que cogerle el truquillo. y la edición tampoco me convence...pero bueno, misión semanal cumplida!
PD. esos zapatos me hacen un daño de morir solo los he sacado para la foto, ..el 90% de los días de invierno voy con botas pero para la foto quedaba mejor el zapato ;)
