This is the last photo I had taken of Ben before his unfortunate accident. Ben was a Blue Indian Ringneck Parrot and was a very dear friend. This is my first attempt at using Photoshop CS4 so I would like any comments or suggestions you may have to help me improve. Taken with a Canon EOS 350D using an 18-55mm Zoom lens. / / / / / Tue 14-Apr-09…...I Love Birds / Sun 19-Apr-09…...A Friendly Pet Shop / Sun 19-Apr-09…...Playful Photogenic Pets / Mon 03-May-09…..All Pets Great and Small / /
This is my first attempt at Photo editing. A very kind friend on RB offered a few pointers and this was the result. Alex is about 5 months old here and is among the last photos I have of him. I had intended to upload his photos in chronological order but I wanted to share this one now. Taken with a Canon EOS 35D and the standard 18-55mm lens. Alex became my reason to get out of bed in the morning. I had been medically discharged after 34yrs in the military and was unable to continue working. I lived for my work because I enjoyed it so much, I loved being able to teach students, look after their needs, help them with personal problems and to pass on the knowledge I had accumulated over the years. I was an instructor at the ADFSC (Australian Defence Force School of Catering). Almost every day was a 12hr day or more. / / Suddenly being unable to work any more destroyed my life, I felt useless, I was just taking up space, and had no real reason to continue living. / / Alex changed all that, he took me from the depths of suicidal depression and gave me a new lease on life…..I now had a reason to live, to get up in the morning and look after my friend. I now had someone to teach and care for. I could play “Dad” and Teacher all over again…..It did not take long before this interaction became an essential part of both our days. In less than a week this little man did what councilors and psychiatrists had been trying to do for 3 years….To say Alex had an impact on my life would be a massive understatement. / / / / / Mon 06-July-09…...Focus and Lighting /
I have no idea what this flower is. If you can identify it for me please let me know so I can include it here. Taken with a Canon EOS350D and used an 18-55 lens with a x8 macro filter attached. I now know what type of flower this is, it’s a Gladioli. Many thanks to Brandie1 for telling me.
