Blast from the past

I was reminded of this bird seen on one of the first ever Natural Stone trips by a post to Katie Fuller's timeline on Facebook. This was at some manky looking pools in Sanlúcar de Barrameda south of Seville in Andalucia, Spain on 21st May 2005. This reworked version of one of the photos is very pleasing and a reminder of how good the 3MP Nikon Coolpix 995 really was. It ain't all about pixel count ya know!
