    \$\begingroup\$ It would be great to annotate photo submissions with some details about the photo like aperture, focal length, iso. Then in addition to marveling at the images we can learn what it takes to get such a shot. \$\endgroup\$

No submission from me this week, but I just wanted to say - somewhere - that I think the weekly featured image is a really excellent motivator for this site. I love discovering a new photo each week, and checking out the runners-up.

I'm not a professional, but I love to take photos of birds. This one I took at my own farm house: Wet Bird

This bird is very common here in Brazil, he was using the plant to clean himself with the water
