    I posted the base image in Avian a week or so ago. Anyway, it is one of my favorites. (I know its a bit tight in the frame)
    comments and critique welcomed. regards~Bill

    Agree it's a bit tight. Nice pose with the tail up. Lovely soft color palette. Love the effect on the bird and perch. Nicely done.

    Good, then I won't have to type that out! ;) I love everything about it except for the orientation. I do love those wrens!

    I think I detect a change in your processing Bill. Your style seems looser. I like them both (styles) and I too am I fan.

    Appreciate the feedback as usual. Jackie, it isn't really a change of processing, it is identical, but the effect on different base images. If the base has very clearly defined edges (and lots of fine details) it will seem much "tighter" (as in you analogy), yet with this image there wasn't alot of fine details and sharp edges, and it appears looser. regards~Bill

    Bill, I saw this image in Avian and thought it was great. It was a natural for the treatment and I really like the result! You could easily open up the left and right sides of the canvas. ;)

    Lovely image and treatment, Bill. I really like the soft colors in this. I would probably crop a little off the top and add some canvas to the left and right.

    Beautiful subtle processing, Bill. I like the position of the perch going away from the camera. Helps to get the bird almost parallel to the camera.

    Everything's been said I know Bill, but I can't help commenting on the wonderfully light touch you have with fracting. And Bringing back the eye nails it, for me:)
