Angles

Thematic Photographic 17

When Carmi posted this week's theme I knew exactly what I wanted to post. I shot this in the early morning June 7th just before the Roanoke (Virginia) Sidewalk Art Festival opened. It's either a Black-Capped or Carolina Chickadee, probably a female since the male version has more of a yellowish belly. Most likely she had a nest somewhere in the building being renovated behind her.

For some reason the composition struck me with a small wildlife creature juxtaposed in a framework of the angles created by the industrial material and equipment. Perhaps there's a statement to be made about nature versus industrialization? If so it was very accidental.

I also find it interesting that the second photograph below fits all three themes of the past few weeks: angles, nature, & close up. And I guess we can conclude "bird watching week" here at A Work of Art!
