This is beautiful Kent. I am sure someone is going to suggest moving this to OOTB.
Just like Jack said.
Pretty cool...and indeed an OOTB image (moved).
Both the dove and background are beautiful. The colors are nice, and that diagonal is amazing. In my opinion, the diagonal (and the image) would be more powerful if it were flipped horizontally.
The two bands at the bottom suggest that you might've added some more canvas, there (???). If I'd been trying to do that, I'd have masked out the dove, done a content aware fill where the dove had been, scaled the masked dove layer down a bit and moved it vertically.
Well Kent even though you inadvertently made it to OOTB, Welcome. Sweet image, nice capture. Dennis makes some good points above.
Hi, Kent, welcome to OOTB:S3: This has a painterly feeling that goes well with the dove. Dennis makes a good suggestion on increasing canvas. Hope to see more of your images here!
This is very lovely and has the delicate feel of an Asian painting; with the soft colors of the dove, the delicate look of the feathers in the wings, the wisps of branches, and the watercolor look to the bkgd. I agree with Dennis on adding canvas. I like the unexpected eye just peeking above the wing.
