Landing Egret

Gallery: Photo ArtPosted June 28, 2011187 views4 comments
I have not posted on this gallery before but I was about to trash this image when I decided to just play with it a bit in PSE9. I post mainly in Avian. I always process for the requirements of that gallery but now I think it is time I try to expand my processing into some other functions of the software. I do not quite remember what I did. I like the results though.

C & Cs appreciated

The symmetry and high-key nature are real eye-catchers. It looks like the bird's head and neck are soft. I'm debating with myself and think that I like it. That gets me wondering if softening (maybe an Orton effect) the feathers and feet would complete turning this into an abstract.

Whatever you did I like the results and the graphic look of this image.
