Junk to art?

Ric Grupe

Wierd morning shot that had something I liked....but hated as a photo.



So, I used the 'paint' part of Corel Photo-Paint to create this.



At least it kept me out trouble for an hour or so! :wink

Ric not bad
I usually don't care much for manipulation of this sort, but this one works for me !

Cool looking bird too, what species ??

Thanks, Ben.

I think it's a female Red-bellied Woodpecker.

I agree with the manipulation thing.....but idle hands.....

I like it also, Ric. Then again...I'm all for messin' with my photographic images.

Some info on that red-bellied woodpecker.

Your photo makes me think of a kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar...only it's a woodpecker in the fruit bowl. Good shot!

Nice web site...now on my favorites list.

Thanks, Mike.
