Hodgepodge House Finch

[Gus Hallgren]

Hi; Couldn't make up my mind, probably losing it, heck, I'm only 86, thought I had at least another 14 years. That's what I threaten Gina with :2eyes2: Any did a bit of stroke, a little bit of Topaz clean on the House Finch posing in our garden this morning. Over tones of green :D

Looking forward to your comments.

Gus, This is one of your best! The framing and the Clean look great together. Beautiful colors too!!:) I'd love to include your stroke tutorial in the Work flow sticky at the top of this forum. Let me know if it's okay.

Gus,

Greetings. The framing and color are great. Here's an idea on how to really take this out of the box ;)

a quick edit to give the idea

Remove the frame on the tail and perch tip (I also solidified the outer frame on the perch on the left side). You could add a slight drop shadow on the frame for the tail/perch to further the effect.

Just an idea...

Cheers,

Hi Michael;

I love the tail effect, and had thought of that, glad to see it done., However, I like seeing the continuation of the perch through the frame.

Thanks for the redo.
