No birds were harmed in the making of this image. While at a nursury/antique place in Washington I came accross these two pheasants. I immediately snapped the picture and was then told I could not take pictues. Luckily I had already done so…..as for a long time I wanted to create a ‘classic’ image of pheasants and corn in a still life. The corn I had snapped some years ago. All images are my own.

Beautiful !!
Thanks Virginian…..I am surprised at the anemic response this image has gotten so far. So I definately appreciate your comment. This one took me a long, long time to develop from the multiple elements…..
Well, I know how much work these are with multiple layers. I think you did an incredible job with this. All the elements work together to make for a warm image with outstanding color tones and textures. A fave for me.
Thanks Karen. This one particularly. There isn’t one element except the table that was initially in the image.
Thank you so much. Very much appreciated Lorraine.
Historically beautiful picture. It brings to mind the fare of yesteryear!
Yes, I did some research on pheasants and oils. However there were precious few. Even less so in the post modern era. But I think the coloring of these birds is fantastic and just had to use them in an image. Thanks for looking and commenting.
Excellent work Jeff!! Such striking colors!! :)
Pheasants used to be so prevalent in my area as a child. They made such a distinctive warbling noise when a group were startled and took flight!!
I can’t remember now the last time I saw one in the wild!! Such a shame!!
