Nothing fancy here, just a high-key shot of a gull turned into a sketch with Topaz Simplify. The original shot was pretty good and could stand alone, but I wanted to think out of the box, so this is what I ended up with. Hope you like... :)

Nicely done Kerry, This has a good feel to it...love the high-key look...:cool:
Kerry, You are singing my tune w/ this one!! I love the sketched look w/ high -key! Very nicely done. I bet the original is fantastic!
I love this composition! The sketched look combined with hk makes the difference here. Excellent work.
Excellent HK here , loved the pose of bird

Hi Kerry, Good job on this! The effect works well along with nice wing position and placement in the frame.
Thanks everyone! Just for grins here is the original with no tweaks other than cropping and levels. :)
Beautiful Kerry!
Hey Kerry,
I really like the pose and the conversion has a very nice pencil sketch feel to it.....but I am going to go against the grain here and say that for my tastes........the dark black is a bit out of place......I want it darker than the rest.....just not as bold as it has a nice soft feel to it........hope it makes sense but as always.....art is subject to interpretation!
I like it very much Kerry. Your rendering is very unique and stands strong amongst the sea of great HK thus far this week IMHO.
Great HK image, Kerry. The sketch effect is perfect for this.
Very creative Kerry. Looks like a real sketch. Wonder about a slight darkening of the eye?? Like the feel of this one.
