I almost ran over this bird-brained rooster this morning. Good thing it was somebody’s pet, otherwise I would’ve reversed and made sure I didn’t miss a second time. This ‘ornamental’ bird is about half the size of a normal chicken, but has an attitude the size of an ostrich. Check out that leer, I didn’t know animals could give people an ‘evil eye’.

 

  1. how do u make a chicken look so pretty even when it is not really that pretty when you actually see it??It makes me wonder….is it your skills or your camera??? :p

  2. Sam, the camera is only a tool. The most important picture is not the one you see with your eyes, but the one that’s in your mind. Food for thought…. :op Okay, bottom line is this: learn to use Photoshop, ha ha.

  6. I pity the people working for Adobe… when they hear u ppl say that users of their products are ‘cheats’, lol! :op Anyway, photography is more that just recording this ‘as you see it’. It is the art of interpreting a live scene and transposing it on to media. The camera (and Photoshop) are, again, just tools. Whether the pic resembles the scene in real life is beside the point. True photography begins with that image in your mind. Just my 2 cents.
