Meet my little friend Cecil. Cecil is the night watchman who takes care of and watches over my Pops enchanted garden. He makes sure that everything is in order; keeping the peace among the flowers, the squirrels, and the birds. This afternoon he came to show me that he was starting to shed his old skin, and was replacing it with a new vibrant shinny coat. Cecil was painted with a Nikon D200, using a Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 macro lens with a 20mm extension tube.
