| "Pterodactyl", Boardwalk, Shem Creek, Mt. Pleasant, SC © Doug Hickok All Rights Reserved Today (or maybe it was yesterday or last week), an intrepid photographer made this image of what he asserts is a rarely seen prehistoric animal. In fact it is so rare that some experts speculate it is the first and only sighting of a pterodactyl in, well, 150 million years. Others (foolhardy skeptics mostly) believe the said photographer displays a delusional imagination, and that the reputed flying reptile is nothing more than the ubiquitous brown pelican. Believe whatever you wish... it's the internet after all and truth is elusive. |

Snipe...pelican...pterodactyl...whatever, it picked a great evening to take to the wing. And what a shot, lovely textures, shadows and leading lines all bathed in beautiful light.
ReplyDeleteThe stuff of legends...
I'm going with pterodactyl because it makes my brain happy.
ReplyDeleteL'image est très belle, l'intrusion de la préhistoire apporte du mystère à la photo.
