[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
We have at least 4 hawks in our neighborhood. I have been unsuccessful at getting a decent shot of any of them until yesterday. While walking with friends, a hawk landed on a powerline right over us and then flew off.

Neither image is really good, so I combined them. Using PSP I placed them as separate layers and created a background layer selecting the color from the trees. With clone brush, I blended everything together. Not wanting it to look like two birds, I left the third layer evident.

Hope you enjoy,
Reid

merhaba Reid;
verynice captured bravo...selamlar

Reid The bloches of gray detract from your effort and would be better eliminated. Do keep after those bird - there is a quality picture waiting to be captured.

Very nice try. I have been to India so many times, thousands of hawks everywhere, even n Delhi. They are just too fast for me!
