More croppings, birds and beasts

So before I know it I've collected a whole exported file of scores of cropped details.  A few ground rules are needed.  I only crop in a ratio of 5:3, that's a widescreen format apparently.  It's more challenging.  And I'll try to sort them thematically a bit when I post them.  So here are some non-human non-plant beings.

Rumours of my connections with the Lord of the Flies have been greatly exaggerated...

Hitting soft sand.  She had to get into one.

These are magical, Lucy. Thank you for stopping by my blog. I love the texture in your photographs, and the wit.

These are wonderful, especially the eyes. And Dog.

That last one made me laugh - you must have clicked that shutter at the most precisely right moment!

what a lovely series of photos - thanks for the beautiful bunny! I agree with Julie - that last photo is wonderful!

Do I detect a note of apology or guilt in your reference to cropping. I rarely produce a photograph which I do not crop. Is there a shibboleth among photographers which prefers them to print the picture they compose in the view finder? I have often wondered, but if the answer is yes, I have to wonder why?

I like the chickens. Little fat brown hens are just the cutest things.

Very nice collection of critter pictures, tho I certainly like the horse best of all.

Hated Lord of the Flies. Glad to hear you're not really very connected. haha.
