Here's another "old" bird photo that I took a while ago. One of the few times where I've managed to get a real good photo of a chickadee.

I used two Shadowhouse textures and one Kim Klassen texture after first converting the image to B&W. I also added a slight blur overlay to soften the details a little.

I think this is fantastic! Love the perch, composition and texturing.

You are the master! Cute little chickadee, I can see this as being a page from an antique bird book.

Great job with making the photo look antique Christopher. Chickadees are hard to get a good photo of and yours is very nice.

Christopher, this is perfect. I love everything about it including the hints of color in the chickadee face. I hope we see more:w3

Thought i commented on this yesterday but must have missed the send button! Love the composition, and the textures just work beautifully. I could visualize a long row of these images on the wall in long hallway someplace. Very nice effect.
