Great-Blue

Great-Blue, originally uploaded by TimDD.

Ah Flickr. I started out with a far smaller Great Blue Heron when I originally posted this photo… but the beauty of the Flickr Gallery is that there are critiques galore to help you refine your technique. Here I was able to tighten up considerably by layering the bird, using LucisArt Exposure to bring out the under-wing detail without too terribly generating digital artifacts, add the vignette… and here you have it.

Here’s the scene at the site of the Iceman start.  Steve and I arrive very early to tie up loose ends and set some final trail markers… just before sunup.  Ice on the puddle, appropriately, a nice mist rising, the Kalkaska water tower, frost on the grass.  Nice!
