I am fond of the Smurf Emerger so I thought I would try adding a little pheasant tail under the flash. ;)

Great patterns, Bill. I love the body work. The flash creates a nice segmentation over the pheasant tail body.

You are spot on with the name too Bill. Great pattern for that system!
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.
