When the rooster...

Uploaded: July 08, 2003

Description

crows at the break of dawn, look out your window and I'll be gone, you're the reason I'm a-travelling on, but don't think twice, it's all right. (A tribute to Bob Dylan)

Nice image, Birdie. The position and the twist of the rooster's head is perfect and the colors really pop with the dark background. Well done! #44745

Judith G. Secco July 08, 2003

I agree with Murry on that. Very nice birdie.

What a great tribute! I'll bet he'd like to have one of these (signed)! Very dramatic and impressive! #137904

Thank you all for your nice comments. I love to get your feedback - very busy at the moment myself, another excursion tomorrow.

Carolyn: There's a great version with Joan Beaz and the Indigo Girls also. You'll love it, if you do not already know it.
Hail to the poet of rock music!!

Wolfgang I never thought I would say this about a rooster but this is a outstanding Dramatic shot....just wonderful!!! Along with your "Whiskers"...:~))) #144556

The most exotic barnyard photo I've ever seen! The strong spot lighting and the focus on the eye really draws you into his gaze. The poetry in light that you present here is a fitting match to the poetry in verse from Dylan's songs. Very well done, birdie :-) #144927
