This is a shot of a Turkey Centerpiece I shot yesterday. I just loved the colors and texture this bird had so I hit it with Topaz Labs / Adjust Filter. Just a colorful shot for todays pic because we are still dealing with the terrorist attacks in India. I have further updates I received from Harsh this morning I will continue to post until this is over.

UPDATE FROM HARSH (Hershy) Received Today 11/28 @ 9am
Bill,
In your mail you mentioned, "Use caution". You could not have 'forecasted' this more accurately! My last mail from work was hurriedly ended as we got news that some of the terrorists (not the ones holed out) were running amok the streets, very close to my office and the railway station they had attacked on first day. People started shutting down shops and offices and I decided to close down as some of my staff members come from distant suburbs. I made sure they were safely on their way and made for home. Later it turned out that they were rumors, but as you say, better to be safe than sorry. Especially when you have to think of your own people.
Early evening the forces took complete charge of the Trident hotel. While that was good to hear, we have since come to know that at least 4-5 people we knew are no more. Young people in their prime, who were having dinner at restaurant Tiffin. They may have been the first to succumb as Tiffin was the first target when the terrorists entered the hotel on day one. This has left a very sad and empty feeling. The restaurant had many bodies and six on staircase, the total may be more than 30.
A few minutes ago at Nariman House, where a Jewish Centre was housed; a long battle ensued and when they were cornered they tried to flee after killing 5-7 hostages, including a Rabbi & his wife. Some of the terrorists were shot dead and now each floor is searched if any more are hiding in there. Now one more floor needs to be secured.
The Taj Mahal hotel is still under siege. It's believed one terrorist still remains there and he seems to be quite determined, moving around, using guns and grenades and has also set fire in one of the rooms.
That's all for now. I will try send one more mail before the night.
Say hello to all the friends.
Harsh
