this is a wonderful picture of life as a chook…ha ha..wonderful!

Fantastic! Very lovely couple! I love it!

Chooks are so smart and so lovable…...the background is amazing…..

Yes Ranald….it is my RB name….and a derivative of my nickname as a child (short for Helen).....when i was 3 i used to sit in a grassy gutter for hours nursing a hen (Australians call them ‘chooks’)...now my granddaughter will call me ‘Hennie’ instead of ‘grandma’. Lovely that it is also a Scottish form of endearment!

Oh, this one is wonderful, made me smile – i love it!

Wonderful capture! rhonda

nice :)

excellent shot

lol thats cute great SC !

Great shot ! Well done

Beautiful shot, I need to know what they are talking about?

Love your view of the world with this one, Ranald! hehehe – beautiful!

a fun picture to be sure!

lol…there’s just something humorous about chickens, geese and ducks….their look of ‘sheeesh, HUMANS!’ that they give u out of the corner of their eyes…

this one’s fantastic

Terrific – a real feel of a journey for these two with the road stretching off – made me smile – thanks

“so this is that road everyone keeps asking about?’
“yeah.”
“so what made you cross it?”

fabulous ~ love the selective coloring ~ and title ~ the next line could be ”...so, do you think we should cross the road?” ;) xx

Superb capture, selective colour tops it off nicely, well done.

Beautiful work, I LOVE THIS SHOT.

Best friends forever! nice capture!

The gorgeous chicken did not only cross the road but where paranoid. Love the treatment, black & white againts color! wow!

Love it! :))

Shall we cross the road, whatever for, just asking….

It’s a conspiracy, I tell you!! – This is wonderful, I haven’t tried to desaturate and selective color before, but this is done well and the effect of drawing and holding one’s interest is keen. – Madge

This is just wonderful. I am sure the one on the left is Mr. Rooster, for I see his nasty claw on the inside of his leg. I have had chickens and you surely want to watch out for those weapons. The older they get, the better they are at nailing you. By the way, I have just signed up for a photoshop class in CS3 and will look forward to understanding your techniques here. Well done and very humorous photo.

That is the cutest!

Have not always seen the point to selective colouring on some images .... but it has absolutely worked in this awesome fun image. No wonder it has received so much attention. It deserves it!

Hoorah … yes it does. There is hope yet!! Just recall I was impressed even to see a link, let alone know how to set one up!

Love it.

Beautiful image—very well done!

I just find this delightful. Thanks… :)

Awesome shot! So cool, like seeing two old ladies take a walk and enjoy the scenery and their gossip session! Love the SC, good use on this one!

that is so cute! :-)

i LOVE THE CAPTURE AND TITLE.

I love this, its a great display of how selective colouring can enhance a picture!!!! Great capture

This great ,looks like mom and pop looking for the kids
well done

this is BRILLIANT

NOT surprised this image has been SOLD on REDBUBBLE

it is very BRILLIANT

great work Ranald

Why did the chicken cross the road? hehe…this is really a GREAT shot Ranald!

Hi again- this is a great shot to comment on – so many things to say – great SC – nice long road- best friends- simple but so effective.
Just looked you up because your parents were standing in front of me while we queued for SIX hrs for the ‘experts’ at the Antiques Road Show!! – no food- no drink – no seat!! – no comment! Liz

Yes it was and they were away in about 3 mins – and I had an original of W Beattie Brown – he first said it was A Beattie Brown – a relative, then I had to see No it was THE W Beattie Brown but he seemed unsure and siad it must be ‘a one off’ – I said I thought all originals were a ‘one off’’ but he said only about £300 to £400. So I said I wasa disappointed as I thought most of his paintings sold for £1000 to £2000 but he kept commenting on the fact ‘it didn’t look like W Beattie B’s – so I’ll get it valued else where!! Wasn’t worth 2 hrs wait let alone over 6 hrs!!

now the question is, “Why did the chikens cross the road?” ;)

Awesome capture and just a superb title!! LOL!!!! Terry

Wonderful shot! I´m thinking of the famous grouse advertisement when I see this. Well done!

WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD??
This is so adorable and that was the first thing I
thought of….Okay, so WHY DID the chicken cross
the road???...LOL!!!! Incredible use of S/C, and a
very creative, funny image!!! A DEFINITE FAVE!!!!!xx
