Let's do something we haven't done before, shall we? :D (At least we haven't done this as far as I remember :32:)
*
The Theme for March is
*
:heart: Up Close & Personal :heart:
*
*
Please submit a CLOSE UP photo of your fid. The closer, the better. It can even be a macro shot of the eye, or just a feather. :)
*
The person submitting the photo must be the actual photographer. ;) NO copying and pasting other peoples' photos.
*
Submissions are accepted from today through Monday, March 28th.
*
No more than one photo per member, please
*
A public Poll held at the end of the month will determine the winner.
*
The winning photo will be displayed on the forum's Homepage for the entire month of April, AND the winner will receive a FREE One Year Premium Membership. :)

That was my RS 'Gemma', April. :D (I raised both a male and female RS from the time they were 6 & 7 weeks - they were unrelated, and they were both placed with a friend of mine)

Just for fun, not an actual entry:

I know the last one is totally off topic, but it's my favourite picture of her so I just wanted to share it, I hope that's okay, otherwise I'll take it down and put it on my own page instead :)

I really do, she was amazing, I wish she would've stayed longer. You can't have everything in this world though I guess, unfortunately.
She wrapped herself up in that toiler paper lol Goofball!

I posted this photo a few months ago on a "random Baxter photos" thread - thought it fit for this month's POTM contest.

Sebastian, thanks for the beautiful entry and thank you so much for sharing the two super sweet bonus pics.


Phenomenal entries, everyone! I'm pretty sure I'll be away on business when the polls open this month.
