In honor of beloved partner Angus, who died 15 years ago today, May 13 . . . a Band-Tail Pigeon takes flight from his perch atop a giant valley oak, so high in the sky . . .
A moving tribute...(no pun intended). The photograph is incredible--such detail in the feathers and leaves. The pigeon is framed, but only for an instant--you've captured the moment. Patty @ 05-13-2009
It is indeed a moving tribute, Jane. I love the underside of the tail feathers! Ginnie @ 05-13-2009
A bird in flight, but so still in the shot. Prayerful memorial. Nice. Laurie Smith @ 05-13-2009
A lovely tribute. It seems to reverberate with dogwood blossom you photographed earlier this month. Pat Koren @ 05-13-2009
May his spirit fly above the Gulch and all of us who gather there. I wish I had known him, but at least I can relish the circle he left behind. Elaine @ 05-13-2009
Agree with above. But something about this makes me want to wear a hat. :) Seriously, may the memory of Angus continue to raise your spirit. Mindy | f-stopMarin @ 05-13-2009
Tho this does not look like the Angus I remember, it does somehow capture a part of his spirit, right down to the one missing tail feather. Sourdough Mike @ 05-14-2009
