The Pensive Stork...

The Pensive Stork stood quietly upon a field of gold…

And gently mused and reminisced on perfect times of old….

All photos taken by me..the gate in the background was taken at Arleigh

Hall in Cheshire, the stork and butterflies from Chester Zoo in Cheshire,

the Iris from my garden.

What a dreamy image.  It would go very nicely in a child's fairy tale.  I always look forward to seeing your new work. I kinda wish I could see his feet though, or at least see the water he is standing in.

Fantastic photo!

Beautiful composition done with very skilled editing, love it, most sincerely, Gail

this is a great series-- wonderfully done. i think i would like a clearer sense of where the foot has gone-- if it's water then perhaps a ripple or reflection. the addition of the butterflies is a brilliant touch.
