MAGIC
Where? It's a Secret . . .

I have been blessed to have a peacock walk up the path in the south acre, and take up residence at my home. He's a fascinating creature, truly amazing to look at and try to absorb the depth of design and color in his being. I've taken shot after shot of him, but this one is definitive, and was selected to be displayed in the 2004 Hubbard Museum Photography Exhibition. Yes, it's a photograph; no, it's not a painting. Yes, he's real, and I had to name him Magic, for indeed, he is.
