    That is such a good idea, painting on an old map, and it works really well.

    Map reading for birds 101. It helps if you have a magnet in your nose.

    What a perfect combination of elements... the map, the red birds (love them) and the sihouetted buildings. It's really a wonderful composition and concept:>
