Re: Purple Gallinule from Joe Overstreet
Stunning pics Pat! We have a bird in the Gallinule family in Australia that has a red beak and legs. Really pretty birds!
Re: Purple Gallinule from Joe Overstreet
Birds of that family are quite rare here in Italy as not much wetland but a lot of trigger happy hunters

If you want some help step-by-step for PS lasso selection to clean up the background more, let me know.

Thank you Daniel :) Sounds like a pretty bird. Seem to be a lot of similar birds between here and Australia :D

If I send you the raw file Ricardo I will not learn. Tell me how so I can learn for myself. :)

Re: Purple Gallinule from Joe Overstreet
I added some textures to the Limpkin image above and really enhanced the color, background and light/shadow effects.

Re: Purple Gallinule from Joe Overstreet
Pat,
Take that Limpkin photo and make sure it is sized where you want it at 300dpi (dots per inch). Then send it to Bay Photo and have a metal print made for your wall.
That is a fantastic shot.
