Bird and Plant Silhouettes

There’s a certain beauty about nature in silhouette. A silhouette leaves room for the imagination and seems to create a mood and story of its own.

“My imagination has always been inspired by nature’s vision.” ~Gregory Colbert

“When you are describing,
A shape, or sound, or tint;
Don’t state the matter plainly,
But put it in a hint;
And learn to look at all things,
With a sort of mental squint.”
~Lewis Carroll

  1. Nice set, Rebecca. I esp. like the mourning doves on the wires… there is something perfect in its simplicity, perhaps because they are all heading in the same direction.

  2. What a wonderful post Rebecca. The silhouettes are so distinct. I especially like the bird with the spider in his beak and those doves which you can so easily identify by their shape and long tail. This is a great collection.
