Congratulations Hilary Hann for your image "Ele bitz" being chosen as the Out of the Box Image of the Week for the week ending 7/8/2011!!!

I'm trying to make something useful out of bit and pieces of wild animals I've photographed recently … this is my first real attempt.

Some advice is needed though. I don't know how best to finish off the boxes with each image as I feel this is a bit to blockish. I was wondering if I should use an edge filter on each individual square within the rectangle. Any ideas would be gratefully received.

Many thanks. :S3:

Well Steve, I have to say that I can now find uses for lots of images which most likely would have ended up deleted. I've even found a use for my failed birds in flights!! :bg3: http://www.birdphotographers.net/forums/showthread.php/87449 You just need a sense of humour.......

Thanks so much for your kind words, Hilary. I know, I can barely read most of the news stories myself, so much of it is so bleak and downright tragic.....
