Happy Hour
Portland, Oregon, July 2007


We were seated outside a bar near my daughter's school. Naturally I was taking pictures. I love the gesture of the bird in this one.

Very humorous image. Looking at the light bulb, yet not getting too close and not recognizing it as a close relative, the bird seems to be pondering "what new species is this?"

Christine just beat me to it -- everything about it soars in incongruity, Tim. The quizzical gesture of the bird, the vintage lightbulb style, and the see-saw effect of their placement.

A companion...
Very incongruous, as Phil would say.
