Filter abuse - Cattle egret

[Cheryl Slechta]

I started out with Fract Glow 100 and used Difference as the blend mode. Then Nik Photo Stylizer Varitone to change the colors but decided to change that with Topaz Adjust Painting Venice and changed the color quite a bit. Hope you like it:)

C&C welcome appreciated.

Great job Cheryl, This is a terrific image to start off the week. There is a softness even with the bold colors. Nice composition. I do wish the bird's head were turned more towards us but I still like it a lot;)

Cheryl, thanks for kicking off the theme with a bang! Love the colors and the fract work. Could be a greeting card from OOTB! :cool:

Wow... this is really wild.. love the look and the colors. Very nicely done.

[Judy Howle]

It's wild and wacky and I like it! Yes, it would make a nice OOTB greeting card!

[Julie Kenward]

I like it, too! So hard to use these colors and still come off with a "gentle" image but you've done it. Very colorful but whimsical at the same time. I might take a small slice off the top but that's just personal preference.

Nice image and application, Cheryl.

Interesting effect of the colors and Fract work.

Don't worry about the HA. Nobody is noticing! :D

Thanks everyone - it was fun creating it:)

Love the frac effect, colors and transparent feel to the bird. Great image!
