the one thing I really like about your rendition is the overall look, Mr Audobaun would have painted this bird just like your image all of the other entries are really good but lack the extra attention you gave to the overwhelming foliage ... i hope you dont get Carpal Tunnel, geez you didnt even get paid!!!
nice job!

Thanks Wizard
I really should be paying our own garden as much attention!
I don't know which are weeds and which are flowers.
Hope I didn't cut the wrong stuff out of the image.
Cheers

Excellent Steve,
The white background really gives this the Audubon look.
Not too cluttered, just the right amount of foliage.
I like his twin brother in the background.

This is soooo, soooo excellent.
I haven't had much time to work on anything lately but home renovations. Yuk!!!
Then I come in and look at this. Okay, I don't have to try it. Steve is now our Audubon.

Thank You Lorraine.
I've never been an Audubon before, many other things, but not that.
Retouchpro is so much better than decorating or renovating home.
Not sure my wife would agree with those sentiments.
I've been nosey and peeked at some of your work, "Dunes" is wonderful, hope to see more soon. (Forget the renovating!!)
Many thanks again
Steve

Yeh man, you've done it. This must have taken an age to do.
Spot on mate.
