The turkeys are coming, the turkeys are coming! Or fleeing, as is the case here. Synapped reminds us that our upcoming feast isn't great news for the turkeys.

I see Tom Turkey has engaged his engines and is making the jump to warp speed.

Probably a good idea... As we all know, the favored Klingon battle cry for this time of year is:
Today is a good day to dine on turkey, stuffing, and cranberries.
Oooo! I like the sweet potatoes with brown sugar and little marshmellow on top too!

Man. Hyperspace always looks so freaky.

Is the turkey in the Matrix or something?

Whoa turkey dude... Don't take the blue pill!

okay, buddy. just put the mouse down and back away from Photoshop.

That isn't necessarily Photoshop work. Some fill-flash coupled with a slow shutter speed and a zoom of the lens can create this effect in-camera.

I understand that motion blurs and zooms can be done the (right) old fashioned way, but this ain't it.

Okay, I looked at the entry in Flickr, and yes, this was created with a Photoshop filter. However, I have seen (and done) similar photos without the use of a photo editor. :P

The domesticated turkey is a large poultry bird from the wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo).
