This is very atmospheric Tessa. You are achieving great effects with photoshop. The original image was a great shot on its own – birds usually fly away before a shot can be taken!
Tessa Bishop replied
Thank you Shirley. This chap was singing his heart out, I think he liked the audience!
Matt Botwood
Images like this really make me want to play around with Photoshop more….just need to find the time. Great image.
Tessa Bishop replied
That’s the trouble, its very addictive and a great time-waster – I’m often late for work! Thanks for the fave.
Jan Timmons
What an appealing photo and composite, Tessa. I would love to have your creativity and eye for beauty.
Tessa Bishop replied
You certainly have an eye for beauty Jan, and the creativity that comes along with that. Your gallery is really beautiful x
Jan Timmons
What a kind thing to write. I truly didn’t mean to focus the attention back to me. This is about your abstract and creative eye.

Beautiful. To me, I see this and think, “nevermore.” :) I know it’s not a raven, but the deepness and darkness of the tones, the silhouette… very Poe. Really lovely image.
Tessa Bishop replied
Quoth the raven … We have a pair of ravens living nearby and I’m hoping to get just this sort of image with one of them one day … for now a blackbird has to suffice! Thank you :o)
