    This is my first attempt at OOTB. I wish I could recount exactly what I did, but I can only tell you that I went a little photoshop crazy here. What fun!

    Maureen, welcome to OOTB and what a nice image to start with! I love the colors, textures, and swirls. If it were mine I would paint out the green swirls that cross the bill, so that they appear to be behind it (like the one at the very tip of the bill). Great job and I hope to see more of your work here.

    Maureen, Great first post and big welcome to OOTB! I love this!! Very creative and fun. If it were mine I might crop a little off the top- to halfway between the top edge and the highest peak on the head of the bird. Nice job and I am looking forward to more.

    Hey Maureen, this is a wonderful first OOTB post! Your title is perfect because this is really groovy!

    Some great suggestions have been given and applying them will definitely take this up a level or 2. Nicely done!
