Shots I Just Like

I call this picture, "I feel like chicken tonight!" Joe Berk took this while we were on assignment in Riverside. I was stretching just at the moment he snapped a shot with his Mavica. It reminded me of the old commercials for a sauce in which to cook chicken. All of the actors would dance around waggling their arms while singing, "I feel like chicken tonight, like chicken tonight!" 
This is "The Great Wave", a painting by Japanese artist, Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849), Japanese painter and wood engraver, born in Edo (now Tokyo). He is considered one of the outstanding figures of the Ukiyo-e, or "pictures of the floating world" (everyday life), school of printmaking. You can find more great artwork at the Paris WebMuseum at: http://sunsite.unc.edu/wm. This is one of my favorite non-van-Gogh prints.
This is a digitally altered print of the photo of a butterfly that's on my Nature page. I created this effect using the watercolor options of Microsoft's PhotoDraw. It's a great program for a lot of things, and I particularly liked the effect on this one print.
