In the middle of this month I was in need of a break from 'normal' life so headed to Andi's for the weekend and a trip to the zoo! :o) We had a great day and exceptionally good weather (till about 10 minutes before we left!) and I managed to take a few snaps I was reasonably happy with :o) This was the one that I decided to enter in the end. Lighting is from the sun which was in just the right place and my thanks go to the birdie for being a great poser :o)
Editing...not a lot at all! A neat little trick Andi taught me (that I now can't remember!), hue/saturation, contrast, a little dodging and burning (mainly on the eye area), resize, sharpen and saved! :o)
Absolutely no idea what this will score, not very good at predictions, however, it needs to beat Andi's score this month as we have another side bet going on this challenge!
