Tell me a story - Thematic Photography

Congratulations to Carmi for reaching a 200 thematic photographic milestone. For this week he has chosen an abstract theme.


As I am preparing to travel back to the UK later today I only have one picture for you today. This was taken through a double glazed window. The tree is 400 yards away; the birds are rooks.

Rooks
There are several collective names for rooks. This photo may hit them all.

  • Building - who put that scaffolding there"
  • Parliament - a lot of hot air
  • Clamour - you can hear them this far away.
  • Story tellling - about the bird that got the worm.

Ah, I like those rooks - I always liked the name "Parliament" - those personally I think rooks are a lot more sensible than some in our own dear House of Commons!!!

I thought parliament was for owls. Have a good trip home.

They do look like they could be standing around planning some new laws.

You are right, Bob, those birds aree up to something. I think here they are waiting for the coffee to brew before they start.

Have a nice trip.

Nice shot. "Clamour" is my favourite of the terms.
Hope you have a good trip home.

I bet your sad in some ways to leave such a beautiful time not just Michigan, but catching up with your daughter! Safe journey home Bob...and perhaps these lovely birds will sing you a song!
