Where's The Pussycat ...

For this week's Sunday Challenge, the theme for which was glass.

A challenge that finally gave me an excuse to take some shots of this cute little owl. The wings, legs and head are metal, but the body is made from a single piece of orange glass.

I tried him in various positions around the garden, but decided in the end to use this shot of him sat on the roof of our smallest garden shed, mainly because I liked how the light was illuminating the glass.

Once I'd decided to go with this shot though I had to get busy with the cloning tool as the roof was covered in bird poo ... nothing to do with the owl I hasten to add!

Please view on black for best effect.

I think one [piece of bird poo would have been perfect for this shot, Paul. ;-)
I like the way the light is shining through the glass body.

Oh what a wise one you are to spotlight this for the challenge. Black background and large really makes this pop of the page. Delightful Paul. :)
