the maltese penguin by northy

the maltese penguin

who knew there was so much space under my bedroom door?

just a bit of silliness... to see if i could... works decently on black i think...

a threefer:

light and shadows for the black and white challenge

a ridiculously and completely unnecessary high iso for the camera setting challenge
http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/23174/new-camera-settings-challenge-crank-up-that-iso

and also an entry for the weekly doors and windows theme... just because ;p

thank you all for the continued views, comments and favs on my recent shots... i'd really love to have more time to spend perusing your shots and commenting back, but at the moment things are just too hectic... possibly over the coming long weekend i'll have more time to spend here, but i can make no promises...

some music to go along with the image...

the noise bugging the heck out of you yet? have that urge to remove it? :-) awesome comp as per usual! my bedroom door is the same, with all that more than an inch gap and i'm always left wondering if in the off chance a snake makes it inside the building whilst i'm sleeping. yaiks! fortunately, the front door is solid flat in its frame. now, must inspect the windows. name the tux guy caipus. ugh, somehow that didn't sound decent. :-)

This is such a fun shot, I absolutely love it. It's a mixture of the light and shadow plus the giggle when I look at it that makes it a fav. It reminds me of Wallace and Gromit for some reason!

@bill_fe tx Bill! Mr. Cairo is a character from the movie Maltese Falcon... he was played by Peter Lorre and became quite an iconic personality... immortalized in the Vangelis song "friends of Mr. Cairo"...
