Pretty much full frame, used a B and W conversion (#1) Preset and then adjusted the opacity with the base layer and masked the eyes back in.
Comments Appreciated.
Jackie, I like the B&W look with the touches of color. I do wish that the bird on the left was facing just a bit more towards us. BUT the interaction between the two of them is great. I think you did a really nice job masking back in just the right amount of detail. The high key BG is beautiful!:)
Jackie, Ditto what Denise said. I also really like the simplicity or minimalist quality of this image. It looks so much like a drawing with the bold outlines. I love it!
Hi Jackie, Love the simple, elegant feel of this. I see a little grey shadowing on the BG around the left bird's bill that I might remove, but that's a minor point. Well done!
This is too cool. They look comical yet alive. What program were you working in????
