White on White

I added the fractalius filter to this along with a lighting effect slight texture, de-sat and masked back in some details.

Well, you are the fractalius guru of late! I love the soft flowing background. A nice effect you created!

Very nice, Denise! Love the BG. I'd prefer to see a little more detail on the bird though.

Very nice D. Like the BG and the pose on the bird. Agree with Christopher that it would be nice to have a bit more detail in the whites.

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. Can't bring in too much more detail. This kinda changes the dream-like image I had envisioned, but I do like it better. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

Your repost is stunning! Period. :)

Thank you Akos. I appreciate it.:)

I like both but the repost is softer, more subtle. I wish there had been a little bit more definition between his neck and body (with the neck being extended away a bit more) as I think that would have pushed this WAY over the top but still a fantastic image, Denise!

Nice work on the repost, Denise.

Julie and Christopher, Than you for your comments, Much appreciated.:)

Excellent fract composition, Denise. I really like the bg texture. Great repost. very nicely done.

Thank you Indranil. I appreciate it.

Well I got back from New York just in time to see this fantastic image (worth coming home) I also like the re-post better and agree you shouldn't bring back anymore detail. Beautiful work.

looks like you added some density in the repost that i like a lot!!! really does give it more definition without losing the feel you were going for!! nice job, denise!!!!!

Thank you Dave and Harold I appreciate the kind words.

Denise, the repost is beautiful. The textures and detail in the tail and wing feathers and surrounding bg compliment each other much
more in the repost.

Thanks Cheryl, I appreciate it.
