    I've posted this before during Painting theme and I used it as a Thanksgiving card last year. I lightened it up a little and enhanced the details a little with usm. This was also taken on Paynes Prairie where the bison roam free:) After posting, it looks like I should lighten the tallest pieces of grass on the ULS and maybe take a bit off the top?

    Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions always welcome.

    Really like the effect here............... Also like the tree/grass line silhouetted in the BG. These boys are very timid, you did well getting this close. The frame looks fine with me, although the fog seems thickest right around the turkeys head, anyway to get a better peak?.............He looks like a beauty. Cool shot.

    Cheryl, I do remember this one. Jay makes a good point regarding the head. I think the crop is fine but you could take a small slice off the top if you wanted. The misty fog is cool!

    Cheryl, I love the soft, misty effect here with the turkey a bit out of focus. I think the crop looks just fine, and I agree with Jay on the head. Looks like one handsome tom! :)

    Cheryl, I like the misty look and don't mind the extra fog in the head. Been there... :cool: I agree with your assessment and think you could crop just below your signature. I like the reversed embossing you used for the sig. Cool!

    I know I'm missing the whole point of this image, but I keep wanting the turkey to be a bit more clear. Nice soft colors and feel.
