Western Sandpiper

Sony A-700~ Tamron 200-500 @500mm~ISO250~F7~1/1250sec~Quintana, Texas~CS4
The watercolor effect I'm fond of; dup layer/covert to B&W/ find edges/ merge soft light mode, seems to work pretty well here.
comments and critique welcomed. regards~Bill

Hi Bill, Nice effect along with an interesting subject. To my eye the large amount of room in front of the subject seems to work...

What I like best about this is that the treatment is noticeable, but very subtle - Just perfect!

Beautiful effect. I like the pose of the sandpiper and the colors and light really makes the difference.
