Blog Entry Picture Perfect theme this week is ~ Magical ~ Apr 30, '08 2:17 PM
for everyone

Welcome to

Picture Perfect

~ Each week a theme will be posted up on Thursday, and you are invited to put up your best picture with that theme in mind, it should be just

 ONE and ORIGINAL,

 i.e not off the internet,

Then come back and post a comment on this page
so that everyone can link to your blog and see your pic.

By all means mention your camera and lens used, and if the picture has been altered or enhanced in anyway! Out of the box thinking is encouraged!!

Please open your page for viewing for all for that day...and then visit as many others as you can! Try and post a decent size pic on your blog page, so much is lost if the pic is too small or too big.

The entries will close at midnight on Friday

On a trip to the lake when I lived in Houston a couple of years ago, it started raining. There were no highlines around for the birds to wait out the storm. That being the case, they simply lined up along the shore as if they were perched on high. It was a magical sight to see on that rainy day.

The haziness of the picture is all the rain pouring down. If you look closely at the water behind the seagulls, it seems to be boiling due to the downpour

Wow...at least they all had the same idea, or is it just following the flock?

Even the birds line up (wondering why some people don't want to, hahaha). It is magical.

Great picture - I like the twist with having the mob instincts intertwined with the actions of the rain aspect being interpretted as magical!

One of those very lucky shots we all want to be ready for. This is a nice shot. The haziness of the rain really sets it off.

Great shot :-) Is it a little out of focus, or is that just the effect of the rain?

Wow did not notice the water until you mentioned it!!! It must have been raining literally buckets that day. Birds do not seem to mind, were they in their own little magical world that day?

I'm inclined to wonder if they're not taking a refreshing shower... or singing in the rain... they should be dancing : )
