Two lines, head over head. Both staring at the viewer, with the top one staring right at the viewer. Background is dark rock, and looks like a dark grey photo studio background curtain. Technically not perfect, not crisp focus, but STRONG emotion and wonderful connection with the viewer. Where does the picture end and the "real world" start?

male and female american goldfinches on a feeder. The males are bright yellow with black and white striping on the wings. The females are generally pale gray yellow where the males are bright. Black cap. My signature is to have bird looking right at me. I think this draws the viewer in, and adds emotion to the pic. I think that if there is no emotion in the pic, then it is record of what you see, perhaps not art.
