Birds in the clouds

Susie Loucks is a photographer living in Los Angeles. I met her outstanding work while looking for bird art prints on Etsy.com. The ones she gives us are amazing, stopped by the camera shutter in such peculiar and elegant poses, usually unavailable to our eyes.

"Photographing birds takes time and patience, however the more time one spends observing an animal, the more one sees its distinct personality emerge. Whether its demeanor is shy, playful, or curious, when a bird is in flight, its feathers are like a flower in bloom, everyday is spring." - Susie Loucks
