 Playing with light... a 25 second exposure and light given with a flashlight. The whole thing was exposed with the edges of the flashlight, then the feathers were highlighted with the bright part. A bit of a play with words going on with this one, so I expect a couple dmnc, but I enjoy this!

Post Challenge:
OK, it's NOT a real bird, just feathers and paint I bought from a craft store... and the gravestone which looks like a Halloween prop... it's actually a piece of paper taped to the background. So the fact it looks 3D is great, in my opinion! Overall, I'm still happy with this.

Pretty unique. Not sure what I'll looking at though.. A dead bird or something? The tombstone looks a bit like a halloween prop.

Definately OOTB, and the lighting is very nice.
