PAF – sept 30th – oct 2nd

Posted on September 30, 2011 by admin

on monday suddenly i heard loud bird alarm at our front door. i wondered what happened and saw that our tomcat had caught a magpie. ugh, that cat can drive me crazy killing birds!! but then i saw the possibilities (i will go straight to hell, i know)… so this actually is not a “raven” claw… i positioned it on a background paper i spray painted recently. layered with two free textures from flickr, ugglove from kim klassen and font is zombified. (find the other PAF contributors here; and the font name should qualify it for the upcoming zombie theme at SPA, too *g*).
edit: i just wanted to comment on the other entries, but at some blogs blogger won´t let me!! arghhh!! i´m getting frustrated with it!
am montag war plötzlich großer vogellärm vor der haustür. ich schau nach und muss sehen, dass unser kater eine elster erlegt hat. ich könnt ihn erwürgen, wenn er vögel fängt!!… aber dann sah ich die gelegenheit (ok, ich werde auf direktem weg in die hölle kommen). statt lange sinnlos mitleid mit dem vogel zu haben, tja nun… das foto zeigt also keine “raben”klaue… fotografiert auf kürzlich gespraytem hintergrund, mit texturen von flickr und kim klassen bearbeitet und dem font zombified beschriftet (deswegen zählt es auch zum kommenden sonntagsthema bei SPA, “zombies” *g*).

Ab in die Hölle mit Dir ;o), aber das Ergebnis lässt sich ganz arg bewundern.
Aber ich seh das so, Du bist doch auch kein Vegetarier (oder doch?) und Dein Kater lebt seinen natürlichen Trieb aus.

love the fact that you saw an opportunity in it! Our magpies here are the black beaked ones and they are the most annoying magpie by far! The yellow beaked ones are librarians by comparison! I wish I had a cat that would take them on! You’re very creative and I like that you were prepared for the scene! Luck favors the prepared!

That’s really cool…I love it, but then I love dark things You might as well take advantage of any creativeness that comes your way…even with the lovely gifts your kitty brings you.

Hihi… wie cool. Du weißt ja, es werden nur die kranken Vögel weggefangen, die fitten und gesunden drehen der Katze eine lange Nase
Ich wünsche dir ein schönes und sonniges Wochenende.

Great look and feel to this piece…I am a big fan of Edgar and Ravens and I like cats too…but oh my on the bird chasing!
