Rainbow Lorikeets Australian parrots are amazingly colourful and the Rainbow Lorikeet is no exception. Though not as bold as the local (and more numerous) Rosellas and King Parrots, these guys have unique and quirky personalities. / . / This image was shot with about 380mm of zoom, the amazing colours are revealed to best effect by the use of some flash fill which helped to bring out the natural irridescence of the feathers. Kodak KZ740 / F4 . 1/90 . ISO 80 Below – Detail from Rainbow Lorikeets /

A heavily cropped image of a Mulga Parrot coming in to land on a leaking tap. This is quite an opportune spot to photograph some of the local birds as the just fly in one after another. Here 3 Mulga Parrots moved in at once but this bird was caught in a really nice pose while the others had already landed. I originally thought that I was photographing the more common Ring Necked Parrot but was stoked to realise that they were Mulga Parrots when I finished the burst of shooting.

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 /
