"Basking Storm3"
I just wanted to say, that this photo had only one small adjustment to it…All I did was add a little low key to it..to brighten up the sun beam….I added no other photoshop techniques whatsoever…and this is how it turned out…To date…this is my favorite piece of art I have done…
Storm the Golden Eagle on beautiful Vancouver Island Canada was basking in the sun today, she found a nice spot by the barn, where the sun just happened to be hitting right behind her…interesting group of shots…almost looks like paintings…I love Storm..so much..
AND THIS IS STORM ON A* *RAINY DAY
