Poultry in Motion

FROM THE ACCIDENTAL MYSTERIES COLLECTION, a few of our fine feathered poultry friends for your perusal. I just acquired the middle image which I love purely for it’s strong design. I could base a lecture just on that image alone.

Of course, the best image is the 19th century cabinet card of the prize rooster, standing very still for his official portrait.

I concur, the second photo is a brilliant design topic, and the rooster is regal and a little intimidating. And that duck, alarming.

I like your collection, especially the second. I have one here that you might like: http://www.flickr.com/photos/beautifullemons/3657709388/in/set-72157621906443780/

It's a black and white like the second one. Have a great day and keep up the good work!
