flying owl

[Rene Quenneville]

I took this picture last month at a birds of prey show near Atlanta. I have removed a few distracting elements in the background and the leather straps attached to the birds legs using the clone stamp tool in Photoshop element. This kind of show is a great practice ground, and it keeps the kids quiet while daddy enjoys the show!!

This one is very nice.....and good job of PS work cleaning it up. Great details and color. I love the owl in this BG as it gives a wonderful 3D feel. At first I thought it might be a bit tight but the more I look at it....the more I like it just as is. Well done.

I love that intent gaze and the flying pose. Nice work.
