A splash of color – the perfect way to get the day started, especially during this cold dark days.

The Incomplete Dictionary of Show Birds by Luke Stephenson is a collection of photographs showcasing beautiful birds. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any of these live, maybe just a canary and perhaps a toucan – but my god, some of those cute birdies have such stunning colors. No doubt nature is the shizz when it comes to color palettes, patterns and impressive design.
