Tullich Graveyard Crow

Welcome to February, folks!

What caught my eye when taking this picture was the crow sitting on top of the ornate gravestone. However, needless to say, he flew off just as I clicked the shutter. But I quite liked the result as I felt there was something vaguely spooky about it. It also fits perfectly for circles within a circle, the first of Flash of Red February.

I have another circle on my mind. My daughter broke her necklace which she is very fond of. She left it with me after Christmas to get it repaired, and guess what, I cannot find it! What have I done with it? Oh woe is me! If/when I find it - I will post a picture ... it is a circle on a chain. Root for me, please - it's driving me crazy!

The necklace will be in a safe place. Think about your safe places.
The photo is a good start to this b&w month!

Nice shot, great textures and textures great response for circles. I reckon the necklace is right under your nose!

[Renee Salamon]

Great start, shame about the crow

[Christopher Cox]

This is great!

[Boxplayer]

Spooky! And hope you find what you're looking for!

[Casablanca]

Ooooh, hope that necklace shows up! You have out it in a "safe place" so you will find it sooner or later! Nice textures in this image.
PS just emailed you!

This is so great if a bit spooky....

[Wylie]

Definitely spooky!

[Pat Knowles]

Wonderful image here……graveyards are very mono friendly! I have one I might use perhaps.
Well your daughter will know you have lost the necklace now! 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
St Anthony might help if you plead!!! 🤣😘🤣

Beautiful headstone - the crow sure adds a dash of intrigue to it!

[Leslie]

wonderful capture and fingers crossed on finding the necklace .

[Diana]

Fabulous capture, I love all the details and textures. Crossing fingers that you find the necklace asap :-)

[LManning (Laura)]

This is a terrific image. Feels very Edgar Allan Poe.
I'm sure you've tucked the necklace somewhere very safe! Safe even from you, LOL.

[Kerry McCarthy]

Cool shot!

[Margaret Brown]

Super spooky!

[Tunia McClure]

St. Anthony is the patron saint of lost articles. He has helped me find a couple things when I was desperate.

[Korcsog Károly]

Think of the chain when you last saw it! What did you do then? You will remember where your chain is!

[haskar]

Great storytelling shot. I think the crow has more character in flight than sitting on a tombstone.

[Maggiemae]

Is the necklace at the bottom of your purse?
I would have loved to see the crow here on the gravestone - very spooky!

[Babs]

Great starft to the theme. Hope you find the necklace. It will turn up I am sure.

[Phil Howcroft]

the end result is probably better than the intended shot , nice one

[Judith Johnson]

You will find it, I'm sure. I did that recently, put something in a safe place then couldn't remember where it was. It turned up in the most obvious place.

[KWind]

Great shot... very dramatic and well timed.

[Christina]

Love the details in this shot, with crosses just out of focus in the background. Easy fav

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Great start to FOR. If you can remember where you were when she gave it to you and then walk yourself through what you did next, and after that, you might be able to follow your footsteps and hopefully find it. I think you'll find it- I'm sure you put it some place safe and have to recall just where that is. Good shot!

[Kathy]

A vintage look at this cross in the graveyard and the crow.

[eDorre]

Neat shot and much confidence that you will find the necklace!

[Tom]

Very cool and creative
