Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - May 13, 2010

We have had this wood carving for years. We bought it at a local craft fair, It is hand carved
out of walnut and ash, I believe. It came perched on the dried branch. My wife, Arlene, decided
to put it out in our yard this year. The wind blew the leaves of the rose bush onto it
and we loved how it looked almost real, from a distance, anyway. I decided to
shoot a still life of it.I gave it a little ethereal glow.Hope you like it.David
