Mary Had a Pet Flamingo by Weezilou

Mary Had a Pet Flamingo

Mary, always verging a bit on the eccentric, was glad to escape the expected norms of the day, and head off to college with her beloved bird.
ha ha - love this one! I love eccentricity

@annied @linnypinny @miata2u Thank you ladies! After going through boxes & boxes and sending things off to Salvation Army, I had to have a bit of play time! Thanks for indulging me!

Funny! You must email Louise and tell me the story of the Flamingo and Flamingo Friday?!? I love the vintage look and processing!
May 12th, 2017  
This caught my eye! Super processing - not a pink elephant but a pink flamingo!

@gardenfolk The "vintage look" IS an old photo...a very dark image & of course I had to see if I could pull the subject out of it! Imagine my amazement to see her there with her flamingo! (haha...ok...)

Ron Cushing (who lives down this way) started the idea of posting a flamingo on Fridays because he thought they were "goofy looking", and a number of us have been going to zoos the last several months. I seldom go with a straightforward flamingo shot..."goofy" should be celebrated! I'm incredibly far behind, but I have the photos... just hard to post and not get into conversations! We'll see how I do!

a really gorgeous creation Louise. I have been very short of time lately too and spend most of my 365 time just looking and commenting and never get around to posting

I hope Mary had a wonderful day with her bird. Great image.

Just a short look and you know it`s yours. Signed all over. Very artisitic and creative. Beautiful done.

@pyrrhula Oh Ferry, you gave me such a lovely chuckle this morning as I read your comment! Had to share it with Ken! It's all for play, and being Friday, it "needed" the flamingo! Totally silly, but having fun!
May 12th, 2017  
This really made me laugh! How creative you are Louise! Love love love it! Fav!
May 12th, 2017  
Wow so creative Louise!
May 12th, 2017  
Haha... I love it!! Made me smile and I need that today!
May 13th, 2017  
Love this fun photo, Louise! So creative! When will you be leaving for Lunenburg? :-)
May 13th, 2017  
@gaylewood We head north on the 26th of this month with n 8 day stop in MA with our daughter and her family. Then to Lunenburg where Pam is joining us and nearly immediately we're going to Newfoundland! Why sit still? I could become rusty! And you? when do you head out?!

@kwind Sorry to read it was a rough day... My thoughts are with you ♥
May 13th, 2017  
How creative of you to have done this interesting picture.
May 13th, 2017  
@veengupta Thank you for the kind words, Veena! I really love playing with images like this old photo and manipulating them!
May 13th, 2017  
@Weezilou Good morning, Louise! We'll be heading north on May 31st. This year we will be spending the month of June in Toronto with my brother-in-law and from there head to Lake Winnipeg. There should be some spectacular Canada Day celebrations this year for the 150th birthday. :-)

@casablanca You're on to me... The part about eccentricity was autobiographical ; )
