Travel Theme: Bountiful

Good morning from a cold, frosty Hastings morning.  At least it is calm after yesterday’s nasty storm with heavy winds and rains.  Now we have a frost.  Spring is taking a back step.  Hopefully today and the next week she will be back.

So onto this week’s Travel Theme.  I noticed going through my reader that there were a couple of posts featuring birds.  So, of course, here are my birds.  I took these photos the same day as my sparrow photo from Wednesday’s pet post.  This time I decided to do some black and white.  I haven’t really done much lately owing to a lack of my mac.  Then last night I played around with these photos on my iPad and I found that I could do a lot with black and white editing.  I can’t adjust the tones much as I just have to use the filters that I have – so these are edited in Snapseed, Photoshop and Distressed FX for an Ansel feel to them.

Here is Ailsa’s post to check out this challenge:
