Snowy Owl in Flight

I put an accented edges effect along w/ surface blur .Masked the face first so I could keep some detail-then used smudge tool to blend.

Looks nice Denise. I like the edges on the bird. Really stands out. The long hoizontal lines work well for me also, gives lots of room for bird to fly into. A bit off the top perhaps? Dave

Hi Denise,
I like it as presented...I like the effect applied...the owl is placed just right in frame...good show...:cool:

Another for as presented I go by feel and this has it Love the detail left on the face !! Big Congrats !!

Very nicely done! I do think you could lose a little on the right side of the frame but I like it as presented also.
