It was a particularly sunny and warm day, and the sky was dotted with an amoeba-like shape made up of lots and lots of black wings, elongating and twisting, as the party moved from tree to tree. The above picture (no filter applied) is a moment in time when hundreds of birds were perched on the leaf-less tree tops, a sight to see as they stopped awhile, and before I knew it, they were soaring back in the fresh blue skies!

And below is the picture (transfer filter on iPhone). I love the color and how it changes the mood…

It was about 9 in the morning. The clouds parted and the sun walked in. The air was crisp and fresh. The leafless trees carried a faint memory of the snow storm the previous night. I felt so happy to be around here; the mood and ambience reminded me of cozy snow covered homes in christmas cards and the warmth of an optimistic life and living, a feeling that one might get after a long dark night…
