    Hi Folks

    Another photo from our week up at Madera Kubo B&B, Madera Canyon, AZ. There was a shortage of birds, however, every night we had a family of Racoon's come for a visit. Also had a flock of Wild turkeys roost high in the Sycamores beside us every night and scrounging for food every morning. Also had Deer & Squirells around every day. Birds were scarce for Madera, though you can always find about a dozen different residents hanging around the feeders.

    This photo was processed using DAP with some editing of the eyes in CS4 due to using high flash in the dark.

    CC's welcome and always appreciated.

    Keep smiling

    Hi Folks

    This photo was taken with a digi-cam, Panasonic DMC FZ28 - 18X. Small, light with a very good 2.8 Leica lens. with white out flash eyes corrected in CS4.

    F/3.6, 1/80s, ISO 400, -1.00eV, Auto WB, 138 mm and full flash

    Folks might say I should have used rule of thirds, however, I like the centering.

    Best regards

    Uncle Gus

    Gus, The painting looks great. I love that dark magical nighttime purple/blue on the left side. Your treatment really brought it out.

    Nice image and application, Gus.

    Looks soft and cuddly, which I know it isn't!
