Good Omens

I don't know what it is about crows, I am not really a superstitious person, but they have always been around on the best days of my life. On the way to my first ever solo exhibition we had to slow down for crows in the road. The day I married Darren, as my father and I were walking down the stairs to the wedding event, we saw a crow standing on the sill of the window we passed. The day Leith was born, as I was coming out of a kind of sleepy daze, a crow actually tapped on the window of the hospital room I was in. Whether or not they are good omens is not important really, but you do have to admit that they have such a beautiful form. There is a strange little blog called crow-a-day run by Davitt Powell. The two images on the left are from his blog and the images on the right, and below are by Ron Issacs.
