What day was the photo taken? 

July 24, 2010

Photo Description 

Enter #1. While my wife was taking pictures of birds, I was thinking why can't I do it too?!? Since I'm here anyway.. So, one of this little birds (sparrows, I being told) my wife was admiring, caught my attention. It did look pretty good to me to take a cool bath in this hot summer day... So, I wanted to share this with you.. On the other hand it would be a good try to beat my wife in this contest. Sorry, I am not a photographer at all, but I do it much more since I got married.. ;)

Advice 

  • Just stay still until they (birds) get used to you (and take some extra shots just in case). It maybe will take more time, but you can meditate in the same time.. :)
