    I love working with DAP. Here's one last image using Sargent, Camille over it and then Benson blended over those. I'm not sure if I should have eliminated the bokeh but decided it gave it a different look:)

    Thanks for looking.

    A fun image Cheryl, I like the bokeh but I might remove the one white spot from behind the bill if it were mine and maybe lighten the eye. Nice mix of treatments.

    Nice pose, Cheryl, and I like the BG except for the two white spots below the bill as noted. It's interesting how the filters worked. The bird has a watercolor feel to it but the BG is more like acrylic. But it all works together!

    Beautiful composition, Cheryl. Love the bg and the treatment. Agree with Denise on removing the white spot behind the bill.
