In July I was on official break from my routine life. I was in India, confined to home in a way and had very seldom opportunities to go out with camera. I had limited access to internet but able to share a post in mid of July “My vacation” .
After coming back I shared another post, “Getting back after vacation is difficult“. For lens artists photo challenge, here I am presenting more pictures from my vacation which I captured either in my own garden or walking around a lake.
Relax, Recharge and Reflect. Sometimes it’s OK to do nothing ~
Beautiful feathered friends and priceless quote!

Me neither. It was the first time I saw it and I was so happy as we detour from our usual walking path.
We have to try different routes for better understanding 🙂

Thanks Laurie.
It was difficult as I was inside and those were the free spirits and keeping the camera in veranda was not possible due to security reasons 🙂
Next time I shall make bird feeders, hope that will help for better photography.

Wow, what lovely birds! It is so nice to be able to be around them in nature. As David Attenborough said, “Everyone likes birds. What wild creature is more accessible to our eyes and ears, as close to us and everyone in the world,, as universal as a bird?”
