Not expecting to much with this entry. The weather has been poor and my options limited along with a lack of time due to the holidays.
Still taking test shots with my new DSLR and getting used to the feel of things.
I was planning on using the December Free Study as first challenge with the new XSi, but figured what the heck. Pretty boring shot, but hoping to get a few laughs and maybe a few mercy votes due to the title. We'll see how this goes over. If it bombs things can only go up from there right?...right?...hello? LOL.
Post Challenge:
Well, I'm very pleased with this! I thought it would be my new #5 spot on my profile page, but after the scrub it actually moved up even further for once to my #4 spot. Very happy. :)

Good showing for what I think is your first entry with the Rebel. A mid-pack finish, but look at the high commenter's average. This one found it's fans.
Oh, yea, it got a 7 from me.
Thanks Steve! Yes, this was the first entry with the new XSi. I was going to hold off until the FS, but figured what the heck at the last moment. I am pleasantly surprised with this entry. I thought my FS would do much better, but it's getting killed in comparison.

I would not have ever thought to use a brolley as a birdfeeder (and it might provide a semblance of shelter as well to the winged creatures of the Earth)so that is a creative out of the box idea. This pretty blue bowled brolley is in great contrast to the rest of the stark snowy landscape. This is a great & unique Winter composition.
It's interesting, but I am not a huge fan of selective coloring in general, although I know you were trying to put the emphasis on the umbrella. Or wait, was it not selective coloring?
