Chickadee Dreams ~1ST place cc Birds - Thank you so much!~
paintlady101 (Premium member) > albums > Webshots Creative Challenges
Album Info:
At the urging of my W/S friends I have put this into the bird challenge. I took 2 of my chickadee in flight photos, merged them together, and then digitally enhanced the sky to blend the two together. I simply ADORE these little songbirds and have spent countless hours trying to capture them in various poses and/or cute predicaments :o)

Hi Renee - just happened to notice the CC winner, and this is such a deserving pic! Have been helping with a big move lately so I have not been on w/s much, and I'll be without internet access soon for a few weeks, so won't be back at w/s until mid-July. However am glad I was able to see this gorgeous image. So well done! Looking forward to seeing more of your pics once I am back at it. Congrats again, also on POTD. Do take care, Chris
