Fract. Cattle Egret

I used Fractalius Rounded for this cattle egret. I liked his rather mysterious pose:S3:
Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions appreciated.

Love the Fract effect and the pose is awesome. I might take a sliver off the left if it were mine. Nice work!:S3:

Lord I love this. The pose is wonderful but the effect, esp. on the bird and the bark is too good. I'd go for a bit crop from the left; from right between the "h" and the "e" in your name. Lots of reasons for that....

Great meeting you at the Bird Fest.

Beautiful, Cheryl :S3: Love the fract on the bird.

Nice image and application, Cheryl.

Agree with crop. Looks like he/she has an attitude going! :w3

Thanks for your comments:S3: Here's a repost with the crop applied. Artie - I enjoyed meeting you too - I'm glad you like the image.

OMG! The repost is a huge improvement compositionally; everything goes to the lower right with all the cool diagonal lines. For me, this is a masterpiece. The space behind the bird did nothing for the image. A general rule that works well is as follows: "Nobody gives a rat's a__ about what's behind the bird."

Artie, thanks so much. I see what you mean about the background and the reason for the crop:S3:

You are most welcome. I love students with an open mind who are willing to learn :)!

Nice job on the repost Cheryl!:S3:

Artie said it all - a masterpiece! This is really beautiful, Cheryl. I like the pose and your fract work is awesome.
