Sunset birds...

Torino (Italy)

It has become very hard for me taking photos, because my age has not a very good effect on my bones and my mobility is terribly reduced by now.
But I don't intend to bore anyone with my apparently self-complaining statements.
There are not many options left…Aging is what it is.
But I still love photography and, even though my horizons are now limited to the view I have from my windows and my balcony, I'm lucky enough to live on the top of a small hill overlooking my town and it's really entertaining for me to enjoy such a gorgeous view.
Then I confess to you that I do think I'm the oldest Pbaser in activity and I feel proud of my little record, I'm 93 by now!
Today at sunset the sky was painted in delicate nuances and the bare tree in front of my windows showed its inhabitants, many dark birds, but I'm not sure what kind.
I made an effort and with only one hand I took a few pictures to keep memory of that beautiful moment. One of them, this one, is not too bad, if you consider who took it and in what conditions.
So I decided to share it with you, also to let my few, but faithful and kind visitors that I'm still here.
My love to all of you!

A marvellous capture - the delightful colours and the stark branches work well. Glad to see you can still post a great photo. Your mind is overcoming your bodies weaknesses. All the best. Barry ~V~.

Lovely mood in this amazing photo, Bruna. I just love the pastel colors with trees&birds' silhouettes.
