The Crow - original and Photoshopped

and here is the same image, but I applied the tilt-shift filter and the oil-paint filter. Just to play around a bit. I love crows ....

hmmmm

Fantastic shot. I see that you play with new tools in cs6. I found that is cs6 much better than cs5.

I love the pose and the texture works for me. not crazy about the tilt shift for this one though.

First shot is awesome! Great pose by Mr.Crow. Not real crazy about the the tilt shift, either.

Yup shot 1 for me as well - nicely captured - dig the pose.

Another vote for #1 here Matt.

I am with Bambi on this one. I quite like the texture on the sky, but not so much blurring of the wood. Nice shot though.
