I composited three egrets and added clouds and water effects. the second with white seed filaments that look like water spray.

Very nice composition and works that make the Egret looks even more elegant and beautiful ! Nice work 👍
Thank you Erwin 🙂
just gorgeous Sherry!! I love the blue!
Thank you my friend 😊
Hard to pick a favourite here, the second one looks very pretty but I think the first one just has the edge 🙂
Thanks. I agree 🙂
I love all your “snaps” and to the person a few weeks ago who complained they were not proper pictures I would remind them you are first and foremost an ARTIST not a Photographer you just turn your photographs into art.
Thank you so much. I consider photography to be an art and editing to create is a must.
These are fantastic composites, Sherry. There is a refreshing beauty here of earth’s elegant egrets in a moment of heaven.
Thanks Jet. 🙂
I tend to prefer natural images, but I must say, you are one of the best I know at this sort of thing. Your artistic treatments always are appealing.
Thank you. I like to keep thing natural looking even if surreal. I enjoy fantasy and love creating what I imagine.
Cool. I’m curious. What software tool are ya’ messin’ with?
Photoshop. It can do anything.
….are we voting? (smile) The cloud effects are seamlessly able to bring focus to the subjects and make them the stars. The spray is beautiful and yet competes a bit, causing my eyes to jump from it to the birds and back again. The first photograph looks for all the world like one of those arresting displays at The Museum of Natural History I loved as a child!
Your right the first one is more successful. Thanks.
An elegant arrangement
Thanks Derrick. I only had to move one over. The one that caught the tiny fish.
