Description
Yeah I know, it's not a "stalk", I just wanted to be a little more original for stalking it, hehe! The skies were pure blue and I thought I'd try some PhotoShop post work Shari recommended to me. She was kind enough to make me a tutorial even I could understand. You be the judge if it works in this display.
Thank you for comments and visits to my previous upload.

Excellent capture, well done..
Fantastic capture.
Stunning image Piet with beautiful golden light. I love the stalk. (hie-hie) You and Shari did a great job with the postwork. I do believe the clouds render this image much softer! Great work my friend.
What a fantastic shot. Superb POV, looks outstanding with the blue sky on the background. Excellent details on the bird.
A perfect photo Piet, I love how he's perched!
A wonderful shot, Oom. He is a grand fellow. I love your postwork! Have a good day. Hugs. Di. xx

The postwork [imho] is absolutely right for the great photograph - it shows this dignified bird in the best light. Excellent image, my friend. Mike
Good job sweetie :) This works beautifully. Such a COOL looking BIRD! You got me smiling ear to ear this morning... once again, first smile of the day :) Good luck in Nampo. See you when you get back. :)

Excellent photo and postwork. The sky is beautiful.
Well done! If that is the stork, my guess is that he has delivered the baby already...
Excellent shot :)
Yup, it works! Lovely capture. These animals sure do like to pose for you, Piet.
