This was such a wishy-washy photo with no sky color whatsoever. I have done quite a few things to this image to create what you see here.
Two textures by CGTextures, lights in the headlights done in PhotoImpact, and a final air brushing in Picnik to smooth it over.
Taken near Pambrun, Saskatchewan, Canada while visiting Blair this past June.
Canon EOS Rebel XTi; Sigma 150-500mm lens @370mm

From blah to scary

    Boy you got me on this one now!! I don’t remember seeing this one but it must have been in the vicinity! Lol!! But, aside from that, this is just spectacular!! Vickie, the texture and lighting is amazing!! Well done my friend!!

  • thank you so much Blair, I enjoyed transforming the weak image. Well, maybe you will run across it when you come home again. It was taken around the place we saw the deer in the little coulee @ 11:21 am, I made a mistake when I told you the time earlier, the little mule deer buck was at 11:33.
    Anyway, glad you like it, I knew you would :-)))
