Thursday blog

Dave Watts is a wild life photographer in Australia. Before he became a professional photographer he worked in national parks. Dave’s wildlife images have been widely published in many magazines such as National Geographic, BBC Wildlife, Australian Geographic, Nature Australia and many others. He was also a fan of the Nikon. 









This is one of Dave's photos of a orange-bellied parrot. It is now an endangered species. I like this photo because of all the different colors. You are also starring at the bird and it's starring back at you. The shutter speed in this photo was a faster shutter speed because the bird and the branch are in focus but the background is blurred out. The bird is also not centered in the photo causing the photo to be more interesting to the eye. When I first looked at this photo my eyes when to the birds eyes then to his blue beak, then to his blue wings, then to his orange stomach, and finally to the branch. I like the branch because you can see the moss growing on it and and the different textures in the brach. I liked this photo because of all the different colors and textures.
