This image was taken several years ago at Viera Wetlands. In the original image the sky was plain blue. No character at all.
I applied a texture to this trying to get an old postcard look. 
Hope you enjoy!

Comments welcome!

Classic, Kat. Audubon move over! :). A beautifully enhanced photo with striking colors and contrasts. I think you more than achieved your goal.

Very nice pose and much better sky interest than plain blue.

Beautiful !  
I would like to see the original.  I've never been much of a fan of blue sky backgrounds. I love what you've created here.

Hey, the original was no slouch either, thank you for posting it, but I like your interpretation much better.
