    Default Hangin' out

    This little snowy appealed to me, standing there just hanging out watching me. I used a few filters - Topaz Clean and Detail, and Nik Glamour Glow plus color and levels tweaks. I like the soft, glowing light of the bird and the cleaned background.

    Kerry, Very nice pose and composition, I might crop the line off the bottom if it were mine. I like the treatment and the soft blue sky-well done!

    Kerry,

    I love the soft, glow effect on the bird. Beautifully done. I agree with Denise about cropping the line out of the bottom.

    Very nice pose, Kerry. I too agree with Denise on cropping the bottom. I like the soft treatment, but I might like to see a little less softness on the bird's body.
    God Bless

    Neat image, Kerry. For me, the plain of focus, is what caught my eye and interest. I love that similar colors seem to reside in there area of focus... beak/legs... sky/water. I like the OOF bottom and since it seems to complement the focused area I like it as cropped for that reason.
