The Deer Hunter, part Two

kildeer

I can just about hear this kildere as it romps about protecting its nest. Great looking picture; focus, color, framing all are very effective. Well done.

Excellent shot.

Good catch... I'm sure you had to be quick on the shutter. The only thing that bothers me is the added blur. It's not 'authentic/natural' looking. Did you add after the fact? How did you do? I could tell you a better way to do it in PS if you'd like.

Actually, there is no blur added. I thought about applying a gaussian blur but didn't. I did a layer mask though to darken the background to bring out more of the bird.

Huh... how about that. Thought I was spot on with that one. Guess I'm not as good as I thought I was... HA HA HA.
