Over the weekend I went to Aireys Inlet on the Great Ocean Road and took lots of photos. I wanted to try and make more abstract pictures so I went down to the river to see what I could find.
While I was wondering around taking photos I noticed a little blue Wren bird or as they are now known as the 'Superb Fairywren' flying over towards my stepmothers new Subaru Forester, I ran after it because the vibrant colour of his blue and black Feathers really caught my eye.
He kept flying into the revision mirrors and staring at himself trying to figure what was going on...
I think he must have thought it was another bird in his territory that he needed to fend off because he kept attacking himself in the mirror and then would fly off and come back 5 minutes later and repeat the same process...
I learnt a lot more about being patient when I was trying to capture pictures of the blue Wren as he was so erratic and fast, making it hard to capture the majority of his movements so I got a lot of blurred images at first but finally got some still shots of him staring curiously at himself..
This shot was not taken at Airey's but at the Melbourne Zoo a while ago. I thought I would put it up as it goes with the theme of the photos from Airey's with all the wetland animals and natural still shots.
I really liked the simplicity of this mug and the way the lighting illuminated it so I took a black and white photo..
