Ida's Photo Theme Challenge

Week 1: #2. A Worm’s View

32 Comments

What a way to begin the new Theme Challenge year…one week behind!

My husband and I spent the past few days at one of my favorite spots to relax and take photos: Playa Barqueta in Chiriqui Province, Panama. Our friends have a fabulous beach house with a very welcoming pool. Overlooking this pool are two custom-made statues of storks, the owner’s favorite bird. For a change, this photographic effort to suit the theme was actually planned. Before sinking into the beckoning water, I lay on my towel beneath the raised foot of a stork, trying not to be blinded by the sun, and deciding that this could be a worm’s view if it was emerging from a hole in the ground. Luckily for any worm in the vicinity, this bird is incapable of devouring any living creature.

And this is my view of the storks, unless I’m lying on the grass under descending claws!

  8. Nicely done … You certainly must have been in a contorted position to get that shot! What people will do for their art!

    • Yes, Patricia, it was far from elegant. There I was, scooting under those lethal claws, trying to avoid having talons rake across my scalp, and laughing at myself. Quite mad I’d venture to say. 🙂
