Aesthetically Pleasing

Here is the first installment of photos that I love. No copyright infringement intended.

This is a Cooper's Hawk that graced my garden with it's presence.

I love this picture from the wickedly curved beak to the savage red eyes. When I think that I took it, I feel like a wild child that nature has embraced and welcomed by showing me a deep beautiful part of herself.

Taken by me, Dec 2010.

I love how the background is mute and misty whilst the subject is vibrant and crisp and I especially love the bright red frills that are spilling out of the bottom of her skirt. I find a sort of effortless ease to what I assume is a jump, which creates a feeling of youthful whimsicality in me that is hard to shake off. I feel as though I want to prance around shoe-less in a field infested with moles and that by doing so I will attain eternal youth.
