This is a picture I took at Paynes Prairie and started working on it with different filters months ago. I honestly
don't know what I did to it but they amused me at the time I saw them sitting there so seriously so I thought
I'd liven them up a bit:p
Thanks for looking!
Hi Cheryl, I thought I would take the liberty and crop the image creating a pano. I like the idea and the filter applied.
I wish the few birds on the far right would also be sharp. I would also darken the head of the bird thats second from the left.
some really strong shadows here.....they work well Cheryl.
If you rework(I like Dave's suggestions), maybe try the birds even more silhouetted
on a slightly more colorful bg....but only the foliage at the very bottom, as the gray
above works wonderfully.
I, too, like the concept and the effects used, Cheryl. I also like Dave's pano. I agree about darkening the second bird from the left, but I think I like the subdued tones as presented.
