Somebody say blue?

[Kerry Perkins]

I thought this India Blue Peacock could use a little help in the blue department, so I messed with the knobs... :cool:

First I used selective color and hue/saturation to get a mostly blue and cyan palette. Then I used Topaz Clean to get a very simple rendition without much medium detail. Then I fracked the whole thing using a preset I made a while back. :) Finally, masked the fracted layer and brushed back in some detail in the head and feathers in the tail and train.

Kerry, I t looks like it would make a fantastic large print. I love the color and the filter effect. Well done.

Mital, I got this last winter "in the wild" at a local lake. The Blues have been imported to the US as some have escaped and are feral. Such was the case with this one.

I love the color and processing on this image...y'all are going to force me to get PS so I can try this kind of work:)

Nice image and application, Kerry.

Too bad you couldn't get a little more saturation in the blue ... But ... ;) :D :D :D
