Skimmers

I took this image at Sanibel Beach. The orig. image was two Skimmers. I duplicated the one skimmer. Then used "threshold" in photoshop to make it a black and white>then on 2 separate layers created the shadows which I made gray. I wanted the shadow of the added Skimmer to be placed differently so it would not seem like a duplicate. Since it is an abstract I wasn't concerned about the positions of the shadows to the sun.

Very creative like it a lot Denise.

Nice abstract image, Denise. I like how you reduced everything to three tones. Nice comp and the shadows give a sense of motion to the birds.

Creative, I like how you duplicated the birds but made them different..very nicely done..

Good thinking Denise! You got a nice abstract graphic sort of look and feel. I like!

Bold, yet simple. Anyone who knows birds would know immediately which these are and yet they are almost to the point of being abstract. Nice balance, Denise.

Thank you all for the kind comments. Much appreciated.:)
