Hi folks ... spring is here :bg3:
Took an old file to welcome spring .
Image taken at local park back in 2015

Thanks for looking and commenting to my previous posting
Cheers Andreas
Great pic and what a little cutie, love the soft fuzz and detail in the eye
The raised foot and the great looking head are wonderful. The crud on the ground, not so much. Getting right down on the ground would eliminate most of the crud.
with love, artie
Andreas, so soft and cuddly this one! You captured it nicely and with the strut pose to boot.
Love your processing in terms of details and love the textures on the foot as well. Really cool.
You know, the smaller rocks on the ground really don't bother me but the larger sticks unfortunately do distract me from this little fuzzball. You could opt to clone them, but obviously ideally they would be avoided during composition.
Could always test a tad bit of punch in the mid range, but knowing you and you knowing me I think it's safe to say this is bang-on for you my friend! Haha
Love the cute bird and the softness you've got here Andreas. I'm actually fine with the foreground sticks etc...they don't (for me anyway) detract from the bird, as my eye continually focuses on the bird, but I guess I might remove the large stick if it were mine and see.
Thanks folks for your comments , as always much appreciated .
No chance to get lower ... no time for another comp , as the subject was moving and I just struggled to follow the little fluffy ball ... actually did not look to the ground structure . And actually I personally think the subject is attractive enough .... that the natural crap on the ground is not so important , IMHO . But you as a viewer can see that for sure differently .... no problem for me :S3::t3.
Brian .... as always there are options to treat the tones in a different way .
Just for the fun .... I manipulated the OP , massively , just for the fun of it .
Cheers Andreas
The original for me Andreas, the twigs are incidental, the gosling holds my interest, super cute!
Thanks Jon .... I do agree with you .
Cheers Andreas
The detail on the goose looks great. I like the raised foot. Nice to see the webbing on the other foot.
hi Andreas,
both are excellent.
congratulations
Thanks John and Volkan
Nailed the RP Andreas!
Thanks Brian .... glad you like it . More than me .... :w3:t3:bg3: .... I am favoring the OP as there is too much image manipulation involved in the RP , for my taste
