It was a beautiful Sunday after noon the sun shone high in the sky Summer was over and Autumn was here, the weather hadn't started to change which was good and although the Autumn leave appeared the sun was still a warm welcome on my face as we walked in the Fitzroy gardens.
There were gatherings of families with small children running about a wedding and the photographer were standing under the trees away from the sun trying to get that great shot. Oh I wish I had of been the photographer, the day was perfect as beloved and I sat on the grass and took in the world around us.
I once again had my camera with me and managed to get some really great shots. Most of these shots were taken with my 55-250 mm lens
Shadows light and dark
Captain Cooks Cottage Australia's first explorer
As we walked around the gardens three Cockatoos flew into the trees. I slowly proceeded to walk up to the tree they were perched on the branches above me, then I looked up one looked down on me. I whistled at him and he lent over and it was like he was watching me. I slowly moved as not to scare them and as I raised my camera I snapped a few shots.
Every so often he would run up the branch then lean over too look at me, then all of a sudden he flew down onto the path right in front of me and opened his yellow crest.
A real show off he was, as I tried to get another photo, an elderly couple walked past him and sadly he flew away.
