Shawangunk Grasslands NWR in March of 2021. I reworked and enhanced these two photographs. I haven’t been able to get out to shoot more new ones. The background in the bluebird picture is not the original one.

What lovely photos. The tone is so soft and beautiful and very calming to the senses.
Even if you did insert an artificial background to the second image, it was wisely chosen and creative.

Thanks Vicky. I like to create photographic art. I almost never post photographs straight out of the camera. The tones in these two are similar. The top one needed the colors brought out to portray what I envisioned.

Glad you like my creation. I changed the background to another scene.

Lovely combination of photos – to go from the somewhat mystical scenery to the cheery, warm, possible inhabitant of it .
