Description
This is for someone who has always encouraged people to pursue their goals and keep the dream alive, no matter what.
Happy Birthday on this Valentine's Day to you, Piet (Busi2ness). All the best and many more. Here is a poem that seemed to fit and I hope you like it as much as I do.
Jodie
*************************************************
The Eagle
He clasps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands,
Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.
The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.
---Alfred Tennyson

Lovely job on this Jodie. I'm sure Piet will be thrilled to be so thoughtfully remembered. He certainly deserves it. Happy Valentine's Day to you both and Happy Birthday, Piet. Many, many happy returns of the day. -M :^)
extremely creative and artistic postwork on a wonderfully composed shot. I hope Piet is well and all goes his way. I have missed him greatly. I join you in your birthday wishes to him if that is ok with you...
lovely words for a lovely day ! nice capture and postwork, bravo !
What an inspiring message in bold colors. Thank you Jodie and everybody who has wished me well. May you all have a happy Valentine's
Holy Moley! Hadn't seen nor heard hide nor hair of Piet for ages, so he's still around, much to my surprise! Oh well, Happy Birthday anyway. Keen color and lighting effects in this shot, Jodie!
Beautiful work...
Uh yup, put me on the list of well wishers. Nice one Jodie. I do miss his posts. ;-)
Oh yes, it's really beautiful and I like this concept ! A little later but Happy b-day and valentines Piet and to all :)
I am pleased to see it. It is excellent. It is very beautiful. Five stars!
I couldn't come to this site without visiting your gallery, and decided to talk a little bit with this picture...you've made this look like a painting, you've flattened the depth a bit by drawing attention to the surfaces, and they shine forth in an almost night glow, strange & mysterious & fiery. And your eagle looks like it's appearing from some apparition's-plane and has 'materialized' for the photo with a flash. (That shadow emphasizes this!) As always, your backgrounds speak eloquently after a few viewings, and here (yes!) you have these splotches across the walls, making this really look like a painting, where the splotches speak of paint & surface, and make this look even more in-one's-face & bold. However it's done, it's an intense, night-blinding blast of a bird, with more than meets the eye and a lot of passion. (A note to myself: Look at Odie's pictures several times: They will reveal layers!)
