The Running Chicken...Where is it..??? In my kitchen

For some reason my wife Angie had been positively hoooounding me for several years now to print off my Running Chicken "where is it?" image for her....so finally I (reluctantly) gave in and she got it as a surprise birthday present ..well, she loves it

It is a 700mm X 700mm canvas on frame...now in our kitchen

Balk'b'gurk!

That's very nice!

(But frankly, I've never understood how anyone could perceive a chicken from what is visible [unless involving chemical or narcotic augmentation])!

Maintaining the chemical augmentation theme, I too have struggled with that wretched chook.

Until I saw this thread, I was comfortably fixed on the version attached. Now, I have to revisit it all again.

I like your picture, Peter.

What an optically-luminescent chook bum!

I wouldn't wear trousers if my arse looked like that..!

He he, some'o you guys will neeeever accept it but... that is the Running Chicken

Strangely, my wife tends to like the images of mine I like the least ...drives me mad, sometimes she wants to print off my during-processing rejects and it is even a battle to get her to let me hang just a couple of my major award winning shots, usually because they are too colourful she usually likes minimalism .....

Oh and Doug that vinyl clock is Dark side of the Moon ...it will probably get moved form that spot now.

Mike - on the left of your photo is half of a 'Last Supper' picture of some kind.

Can you tell/show more - I'm curious!

Thanks Mike: Google Images has many returns, but none the same as yours!

Is it possible for you to post a pic of yours?!
