Sublime, and tickles me too!

Think you may suit the beard better Phillip! Great tones in the feathers, contrasts well with the red b/g :-)

Try blutac !!! excellent shot.

Are you going to start wearing feather boas in 2009? That'd be a sight worth getting my camera out for! :-D
Doug Cruden23-Dec-2008 09:25
They look like turkey feathers to me, Phil....I like your style, decorate the bird (saves buying a tree), dress it up as Santa (fools the kids) and then eat it! Result! Who says we can't beat the credit crunch??

This is lovely, so muh better than a real tree hacked off for hanging a few baubles then chucked away. Nice! Could always superglue on baubles, saves taking them off and putting them on again for years to come! I am going to buy a smoking house today! Much more environmentally friendly :)
Would you like one?

I would like to see more of this tree thingy, it is very intrigueing.
Hopefully before you pack it away in the attic? btw they were hard to wrap!! ...

Beautiful composition, very Polish :)

Angel-ish experience :) V

This is extremely tasteful - very trendy.
I thought at first you must be plucking the turkey! ...

Something indefinably Christmassy about this. And now I feel like sneezing: feathers have that effect on me!
Sheila22-Dec-2008 21:27
I saw these and loved them, but was told they looked like feather dusters :-)
LynnH22-Dec-2008 21:15

I thought it was a bit of your Santa beard...! ;o)
Faye White22-Dec-2008 21:10
