Another reoccurring subject in my 365 Project is feathers. This tiny down feather is the latest image in that theme. Only about an inch long, it’s amazing that a collection of these can power flight.

With this shot, I wanted to capture that “tree stump” aspect of the autumn…… Continue reading Twisted Stump
