It's really difficult to keep clean when you have to wash in dirty water :-))

Have a good day everyone...............and an enjoyable weekend if you can!

Das schmutzige Wasser bringt die Details des Gefieders besser zur Geltung. Die Akrobatik ist beachtlich ;-)

That is an expression that I used when I was living in some Eastern countries where the water in the showers was brown. I felt deep discomfort.
Wonderful editing on this image Keith. Best wishes, Anton.

Keith Burton club has replied to Anton Cruz Carro club
I can relate to that Anton..........we lived in Gibraltar for a couple of years in the early seventies and the water from the taps was very brown. We used to filter it through an old towel before using for washing clothes etc, and we bought bottled water to drink and cook with...........and wine, a lot of wine!

Glad you like this shot.........much appreciated.
