In Frank and Ollie's slide show, as illustration that "you see what you want to see", they used to show this image first out of focus, and said it was a picture of two rare birds in extraordinary surroundings. Then they had it put gradually in focus, until the audience could see the image clearly.
I shot it in Holland in August 1984.
What a great photo!
ReplyDeleteThanks Hans! The photo (and everything else on this blog) is a real treat! Keep 'em coming.

Well, this was one for "The Most Unexpected Thing I Saw While Strolling Through Blogs This Morning" Awards!
ReplyDeleteIt's unfortunate that the prize consists only of me commenting about how much I laughed when I saw it.
Lovely interesting blog, BTW -- as someone who's a fan of animation arts but not a practicioner, I feel much more informed now.
