Pelican

Just trying the new version of DAP. This is using some pastels and selective sharpening.

Judy, Really nice use of the DAP and I am just getting started w/the upgrade. I love the overall look to this, Nice colors and detail-Great BG!!

Hi Judy, Nice comp with subject on a slight diagonal. Interesting effect with nice coloration...

Hi Judy. Great comp with some interesting effects. I really like the colors and texture.

Judy, I also like the colors and texture. I might like for the eye to be revealed just a tad more.:)

Very nice effects, Judy. The crop looks a bit tight to me, I think I'd prefer a looser crop showing more of the pelican's head.

Beautifully done, Judy. Love the colors and the texture. Agree with Christopher on showing more of the head.

a good start with DAP. Pastels is a tough one to work.....what size original and what output size did you select? I ask this mostly for a personal reference, thanks
