Out of the Void Posters
Out of the Void Poster by Bebops





I am constantly astonished and entranced by the myriad forms of life on this planet. To quote one of my very favorite authors, Annie Dillard, in
Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, "the creator has pizzazz".

I hope to display a variety of animal images on this blog to delight us all. I have created many products featuring wildlife and pets for my Zazzle stores, Bebop's Place and Bebop's Weddings, using my original photographs and designs. I am also constantly amazed at the gorgeous animal products available from the rest of the Zazzle community. I am hoping others will enjoy this blog and even be moved to purchase some of these lovely items for gifts or just for the pleasure of having such beauty around.

Notable features include slaty flight feathers, red-brown thighs, and a paired red-brown and black stripe up the flanks; the neck is rusty-gray, with black and white streaking down the front; the head is paler, with a nearly white face, and a pair of black plumes running from just above the eye to the back of the head. The feathers on the lower neck are long and plume-like. Because this is the breeding season, he also has plumes on the lower back and an orange bill. His feathers are backlit by the luminous sunlight.

From the designer:
Mr. Orange stares down the camera. Orange and white tabby cat with big round green eyes and a questioning look on his face. The cat is bright orange and white with very soft dark outlines, but fades to gray in the background, along with his surroundings... Image is photo-based digital art which has the appearance of a watercolor. Look for Mr. Orange on other items in my store.

From the designer: ...and a Cat in A Christmas Tree Poster. Every time I turn around at Christmas, I am removing a feline from the Christmas Tree. I can't understand what it is about a fake plastic fir that makes them go nuts. I don't know why they always try to eat an ornament. But I do understand why I'm always picking up dangling ornaments off the floor over and over again. Bring this home this season...

A grumpy looking American Toads (Bufo americanus) is looking out at you from this funny custom pacifier. This small amphibian is brown with black, gold olive green and orange coloration. His warts distinguish him from his frog neighbors. Although hatched in the water of ponds, rivers, lakes or streams, the tadpoles soon move to land where the toads live their adult lives. His startling call is a long screech. He looks quite fierce but is actually a gentle little guy who eat lots of garden pests including insects and slugs.

The Great Blue Heron in the original photograph on this mousepad is showing his plumage, looking a bit like a porcupine, fluffing up his feathers to make himself look bigger, to tell another bird that it's his territory. In the photo we see the bird in profile, his gray blue coloring ending in a white head with deep blue bands on each side. His long yellow beak is pointing straight ahead as he walks forward with his long, curved neck tucked back against his body. The background of grasses is in muted earth tones with bits of green throughout.

This iPad case features two Brown Pelicans in the water of a canal. The bird in the foreground is taking off, his head stretched outward, his wings a blur at the sides, and his feet extended backwards as they splash the water. The second pelican, still sitting in the water, seems to be saying to the first bird "Go for it!". The background of the photo shows the wall of the canal at the top, reflected in shades of golden brown on the water, blending into greens and blues with a reflection of the flying pelican in the ripples. These wild birds are out exploring.




The original photograph in this print shows a Great Blue Heron foraging for food along the banks of a canal. We see the bird as he lifts his foot and points his beak toward his prey, his S shaped neck and white head with its dark blue stripe poised to spring. The heron's body, with its bluish gray feathers, stands out against the dark brown wood of the dock. A reflection of a white boat on the water shows off the bird's thin, dark legs. In the foreground of the scene, tall grasses grow at the edge of the rippled water. There is a wide white border around the photograph, with title and photographer's credit in small text under the photo.
