Ever have one of those days when you grab the wrong hair spray? That is what it appears this egret did yesterday. We were up at Merritt Island, it was not a productive day as we only saw about 5-6 shootable images and not many more birds than that, but a few images like this presented themselves and what can you do?
Modifications in PS4 included; Accent Edges, Colored Pencil, Hue & Saturation and Brightness and Contrast adjustment.
Enjoy!

Clever title, Mark:D Really like the result you achieved from the modifications. Lovely! Just wish the background was a bit darker so that the egret stood out more. But it may be that my monitor's too bright! Kora

Mark, I like the colors and the effects came out nice. The bad hair is wild! What is the thing hanging down into the reflection?:confused:

Very nice treatment, you do have a lot of details in the painting, so it works for me.

Thanks all for viewing and comments. Appreciate it.
This is another image of the scene. Not the same exact shot, but from the sequence. I had this for personal use and hope it will address your comment, Denise. I believe you are refering to the tree that is in the water.

Thanks Mark. I wasn't sure what it was-but this clears it up:)

Mark I wonder if a gradient might give it more depth and separate the subject from the BG. This looks like some hair products I have:)
