Description
Sometimes pictures come to you and all you have to do is point your camera.
Yesterday I was sitting in my car in the middle of a grocery store parking lot listening to the radio. Exciting right? Most such lots are a little trashy until nightime when the cars are gone and the clean up crew does its' job. So, I wasn't expecting to find a postable image there.
Just then a rather scarred-up sparrow landed on an abandoned grocery cart 10-12 feet from me. I just happened to have my camera on the seat next to me and here you are...taken with a 200mm setting and a higher than needed ISO setting.
Since the bird was a bit rough looking I added a "Dry Brush" filter to give him that "Paint-by-the-Numbers" appearance. Sometimes a filter does improve upon reality:-)

becoming a painter eh?? smile... this is beautiful.
cool pose ! I love the postwork !
fabulous capture and work!!
effective post work
Gotta love those photo opps!!! (and little birds) : )
I agree with Andrea...this is perfection. Funny thing about sparrows: I think they know that they're evolved from dinosaurs! They give you that look as if to say: "Don't mess with me, I'll peck your ankles." Wonderful work. The postwork adds a different sort of organic-ness to the image and it does look either like something painted, or something done in ceramics. Wonderful work!
Thats a rather good look, this effect has given the sparrow.. I gotta say a kinda like it!!!lol Well done here Bill... Rob..
Great work!
