Taken in the Cleland Game Park outside Adelaide, Australia in October 2014. Processed using meadow textures.
Thanks @jgpittenger for advice on edges and, along with @ltodd Lynn directing me toward the textures you introduced me to.
@lynne5477 You can download textures at http://www.dailytexture.com/ where she offers a range of individual and packages, as well as a few you can download for free (every once in awhile). The wildlife masters and the wildlife meadows (something like that name anyway) were the two packages I bought. What I like about them is they divide the textures into a foreground grassy area and the background. And in this one, I also added another background from one of my photos to add more of the flora you see as background.
this is wonderfully done Taffy - I am trying to teach myself this - I have some of the free textures from there and am deciding about which ones to buy
@stray_shooter I know! They were wild -- that has nothing to do with textures as I masked to get the original. I wonder if she's an older animal -- and if that's the hair that turns gray first?
@kali66 And I'm guessing the female isn't called 'Mom" either. Not pedantic at all -- I'd forgotten there was an actual name for the baby - was thinking more in anthropomorphic terms.
Wonderful! What a fantastic image you have made. It reminds me of our pioneering painter Frederick McCubbin. A lot more softer than his paintings though. Fav!
