Beautiful! I just wish the lighting on the bird could have been more even, especiially around its eye. I know its not easy to take good cage shots, though.

Absolutely beautiful.
If only spot editing were allowed, there is just one light spot about half way up on the left that bothers me. You still get a 10, though :)

How on earth did you set up this photo??? The bifocals may be blurring his vision, but his nose is still operational. Any dog I know would not be looking at the camera.
Adorable.

I feel so silly right now. I saw this picture and instantly started crying. My boyfriend and I went to eat at the signiture room (top of the john hancock) on our first real date while I was visiting him in chicago almost 3 years ago (our relationship was long distance for over a year). It was one of the best nights of my life. Gorgeous picture, thank you :)

The Crow in The Cemetery

I love crows :)
I recently read a book and some experiments on their intelligence... its amazing how smart they are and hardly anyone gives them credit for it.

One crow for sorrow
Two crows for mirth
three crows a wedding
four crows a birth
five crows for silver and
six crows for gold
seven crows a secret, not to be told
eight crows for heaven
nine crows for hell
ten crows are the devil himself
