Sandhill Crane Redux

I think I am hooked by taking bird photos that I love but with somewhat boring backgrounds and adding texture. Very heavy rain again around here so my camera is tucked away for the time being.
Thanks so much for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs

I know folks who couldn't care less about these birds, but I think they're super cool. Nice edits, terrific image!

This is a lovely, moody, edit for these very fascinating cranes. Hoping you don't have to build an ark! ;)

Lovely detail on the crane's plumage :)

Looks like an art card!

Simple and gorgeous, simply gorgeous. I'm not mad about bird and bird photos, but I very much like the way you've processed this shot Jane, it looks just like a painting. Fav for me.

An instant fav Jane, you have taken this and made a nature shot a work of art.

I have to learn about texture...a beautiful composition -- and like others said -- a work of art!
