I haven't posted in the forums in ahile. But I just purchased the Fractalius plug-in and wanted to share one of my first efforts. I used the Impressions 1 preset and then modified the settings. I am looking forward to seeing other people's efforts using it too. Looks like lots of possibilities.
I agree...the head is getting lost in the branch for me - I had to really look - but wow...love the overall flowing effect you achieved! I'm telling you, Fractalius needs to give BPN it's own gallery!
Agree with comments about a bit more definition in the eye and outline of the bird, but, overall, I love it! The motion, position of the bird in the image and pose are outstanding!
I like the look. The head is pretty clear of the branch; it is the fact that the bird is angling away from us that bugs me. When Fracting the basic principles of still apply... And I like that the bird is well back in the frame.
What I love most about this image is the colors, especially the cranberry-like tones of the bill and the legs.
