Great capture of a male cardinal, kayaker! I caught a shot of the female in my tree the other day ...

I was blessed to have an encounter with a very cooperative Great Blue Heron recently

I used Topaz Simplify and layer masking on this one to attempt a painting like effect.....

Joel, that is a really cool pic.
One comment though, what is going on with the birds beak?

Probably sloppy masking on my part
