Beautiful images! I am afraid I would have made the same cheesy remark that Maggi made - but what a fine scene and so nice to see it in black and white. I wonder if the albino peacock could be turned pink by the same pigment the flamingoes are given?! Northerners no doubt have to spend time under the sun bed!

As you say; "Beautiful light", Doug.

I like an image that tells a story ... and none more so than this ... (again from the Dolomites - this time 2009).
