Motion 2

I'm meeting up with my friends at the photography salon on Thursday. We're still exploring ways to depict motion in our pictures. I had been taking pictures of the birds at the feeder for the tag challenge and caught this Tufted Titmouse coming in for a landing on the feeder. I was just trying to sharpen it and improve the colors when I discovered this effect and thought it fit the "motion" theme quite well. We'll see what the others think tomorrow!

Thank you so much everyone! I truly appreciate all those views, comments and favs! I got the same positive response at the photography salon today too- so I guess this one's a keeper!

@caterina Yes- it is. And for some reason this particular mirror effect added in the color.

[Islandgirl]

I love the mirrored effect, what program do you use to achieve this?

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@radiogirl Thank you Kathy! I use Smart Photo Editor. It is similar to Photo Shop but does not cost as much and you don't have to pay for it on a monthly basis. I really like it.
