SQUAREs – Perspective – Laughing Gull

Laughing Gull stands patiently while getting photos taken on Little Talbot Island State Park beach.

Of course I had to start with a bird. This Laughing Gull allowed for a long photo shoot a couple of weeks ago while we were at Little Talbot Island State Park. 30 photos taken to get the correct perspective. My knees were covered in sand as I crouched down to look through my viewfinder. It was too bright to see the screen which mine tilts.

Talk about perspective for me and the bird.

Laughing Gull stands patiently while getting photos taken and looking out towards the Atlantic Ocean on Little Talbot Island State Park beach.

      Yes, it was worth the sandy knees. A reason to jump in the water. πŸ™‚

      Thanks Becky! My knees were fine after a washing. I have to admit, it gets harder getting up as you get older though. πŸ™‚

        I’ve been in physical therapy the past few weeks. Yesterday they cancelled all appts until August 6th due to our rising numbers. I have lots of exercises I can do at home. I’ve lost 3” in my waist since April and am in great shape but my knees suck! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

        Thanks Becky! I started back with the hula hoop today with those exercises from PT. I’m feeling great! Once the pandemic is over, I will go see someone about my knees. I was in PT for my neck & back which is old damage from a car accident in the 90’s. It flares up every now & then. 😊

        I’ve been lucky enough to go to Ireland twice. Once as a 12 year old and then many years later we took out=r three kids there. My mom was born there, so it was a natural destination…
