Forgot to tag anyone this week - so, here is the deal.

If you have been shooting RAW, and have one that just isn't quite right, post it and see what we can do with it.

I will be going out later today and will post one or more of my shots later tonight or early tomorrow, but for now, the teacher is out of the class and the kids are in charge!

:woohoo: :woohoo:

Needless to say, I added smart blur (normal and edges) in PSE... as well as a sky (which happens to be the inverse of the average brown color of the feathers)

Quoting John "the teacher is out of the class and the kids are in charge!" That is always fun. Come on let me see what ya got. Suzi and Michel i like both of yours , but i confess i have not looked at the originals. I always played hooky!

So here is my contribution, but a story first - one of procastination.

I have been meaning to get out and shoot this thing for a long time, somehow just never got around to it. So here we are, News Year Eve 2008 and I still hadn't gotten to it.

Enough already. Went out this afternoon (-15 Celsius and a windchill of -26 Celsius or about 8 F and -18 F respectively) and shot this one and a bunch of others.

This is a local piece or art that has been there since I moved to Kanata and is called "The Watcher".
