OK, this will conclude the Red Grouse for a little while.
This was, in all honesty one I posted in the early days of joining BPN, but have 're mastered the file', if I can put it that way, partly due to the requirements/usage of the image and also some of the elements that I now incorporate into my workflow from the little nuggets that I have gleaned from the Forum. It is not a huge departure from the OP, but the detail has been improved from within the original file.
Hope you enjoy it.
