Bluebird of Happiness

Bluebird of Happiness

My husband took this photo today of a bluebird in flight. I added a little texture because I've been into that lately. I'm thinking I probably should have left it alone. But I'm gonna go for it. So there.

Sue asked that I show a copy of the original, so here it is.

I would love to see this picture without the texture...It's great that he caught the bird in flight, I would like to see what he saw through the lens....

Remember the fly
Bird is dying in a moments
It was the only fly that you dreamed
Remember to fly.

Oh, I love it both ways! The original photo is a terrific capture, and the added texture makes it beautiful and dreamy. You two make quite a collaborative team. :)

What a fantastic photo! Both versions of the photo have their own type of beauty..I wouldn't be able to choose between the two! Lucky you to have bluebirds to take pics of!

Nice photo. I really like it with the texture you used! I'm really enjoying your texture phase. (more than your mushroom phase. ;-)

Really cool shot! Your hubby is really good at this. I see alot of red birds(or cardinals) around Ohio. Maybe some day I'll catch a shot of one. Have a wonderful week!

it's definitely okay to get into grooves.. especially when they're really awesome and well-done like yours here! :)

you'll move onto something different soon enough when it moves you.
