Flexible Hummingbird

[Nancy Bell]

I posted the "real" hummingbird image in Avian a few days ago. For this one I played around with "flexify" that Denise used for her recent tree image. Flexify is great fun! Before flexify I used a layer of pixel bender, oil paint to simply the details on the bird, but add a bit of interest to the bkgd.

This turned out really nicely, Nancy. I like the fact that the curve of the beak and the limb are matching. Neat idea

[Maureen Allen]

Really interesting effect, Nancy. I have yet to try flexify.

Flexify created some really cool curves and shapes and I like the OP filter effect also.

Nancy,

Your original post is really nice but I like this one better. The curves are beautiful and I love the overall composition.

Nancy, I never tried it on a bird image- great OOTB thinking. I like the fun look you achieved. BTW-Nice original capture!

Wow! This is a fun image.

[Paul Lagasi]

Very nice effects on this image, wonder what it would look like as a vertical...TFS

Hi Nancy, love your creativity here!!!

[Indranil Sircar]

Nancy, this is unique and certainly OOTB. Great color and effect!

[Nancy Bell]

Thank you everyone! I made lots of variations of this image with different colors, bkgd, & frames. Too much fun!

Weird and fun. Turned out very well. Good for you for playing around.
