I was reading an interview with Lynne Truss today of 'Eats, Shoots and Leaves' and 'Talk to the Hand' fame. One of her prized possessions is a piece of work by Charlotte Cory, a Victorian family photo with the heads changed by superimposing images of stuffed animals on their shoulders. So, I had a look for more pieces and found the camera working spoonbill. Now, this is one of my current 'obsessions' so I had to post it. I chose one more but I'm not sure whether I like them or not. Could be my aversion to all things 'rodent like' athough she uses all sorts of creatures to great effect so I could have chosen many more.There are loads to see over at the Rebecca Hossack Gallery again and there is an exhibition on currently. See what you think.

Sue,
You're right! This chap was ahead of his time but the idea is exactly the same. What imagination! Thanks for the info.
