For the next month (from May 27th onwards) I’m asking people not to leave a comment on my work here. Rather, if you would like to support the work that I do please either leave a comment or upload an image here I can live without comments but homophobia needs your voices Many thanks / Robert I was doing a photo shoot for another project, but this happened… An old derelict church building in Glebe – inner west Sydney
I created this when I was designing my website. It held it’s place as my splash page for a while, but I decided to take it down considering the fact that I like it as a finished graphic. The girl reminds me of my sisters. Thank you for all of your support~ Image and concept created by Sara Wilson © All rights reserved. / www.fly-k.net

P/S Retouched by Ange. Digital photograph shot by Jerry Kang in Surry Hills, Sydney, 2007. Model: J.Y. I retouched the eyes (creating deepset cat eyed effect), enhanced lips, defined eyebrows, enhanced cheekbones, airbrushed face & lengthened body. Extended foreground of shot by retouching (the existing foreground) as it was taken tightly cropped to the foot. Added b/w desaturated tone & curve adjustment. Original shot below.
Model – Halohid / Hair/MUA – Mishkamink Full crop is on dA, but I really liked this tight cropped version too so I thought I’d share it with you guys. If you’re interested you can see the full image here Copyright 2008 Harmony Nicholas

Common Redpoll (male) on a spruce branch during a moment of late sun (in his warm coat of feathers). Among the smallest of Alaska’s birds at between 5 and 5.5 inches in length, redpolls are sparrowlike in appearance, with red splotches or caps on their heads and small black bibs. Males also sport pinkish breasts. They can endure the extreme cold of Alaskan winters partly because of a specially adapted seed-storage system: While feeding, they stockpile some seeds in an esophageal pouch, or crop, a feature shared with other finches. Through the nights, which in winter may last 20 hours or more, redpolls eat and gradually digest the seeds stored in their pouches. The birds also have dense winter plumage they fluff for added insulation. Their core body temperature remains about 105 degrees, even when the air temperature drops as low as 58 degrees below zero Fahrenheit. So these tiny creatures can maintain a temperature 163 degrees warmer than the air. Says animal physiologist Pierre DeViche of Arizona State University, who has conducted arctic research, “Think if you could make a coat with that sort of insulative ability. It’s incredible, really.” A group of redpolls is collectively known as a “gallup” of redpolls. (from identifywhat.bird.com) Featured in Wildlife-Appeal – Thank you!

I did absolutly nothing to this apart from crop it, so its a fitting title!
Rundle Street, Adelaide SA.
A female Common Redpoll in Alaska ponders her lack of red feathers. (See the male redpoll in previous photo.) D200, 150-500mm DG 5-6.3 APO HSM OS, 500mm, f/6.3, 1/2000, -0.3 ev, ISO250, Manfrotto tripod Cropped, slight curves
Morning walk…it is all quiet and still.
I stood in the snow behind the tripod, so quietly that one bird landed on my lens! What joy. I couldn’t actually say we bonded, but I was thrilled. I’ve had birds land on my hat, but never one that I could see so closely. Featured in Alaska ~ Beyond Your Dreams – Thank you! Shot in RAW. Slight curves adjustment, at the suggestion of Eivor. The snowfall made it necessary to bump up the ISO to 320. I tried ISO 640 at one point, but those looked a tad grainy. This is a male Common Redpoll in today’s snowfall. Note snowflake on his back. Our area has so far eluded Mt. Redoubt’s harsh volcanic particles, although Alaska Airlines and FedEx had to suspend all flights in and out yesterday.
