Lovely treatment, Dave. Nice moody look to this-definitely deserves a click on the image to see the special treat=birds! I like the silhouette effect-the tree is especially beautiful. The front animal's head is a little obscured with vegetation- I don't know if you might be able to bring the mist down around it a bit more. It does show up a lot better in the larger version. Nice work!

Lovely silhouettes against that misty bg and a beautiful mood created here! If you could clear the bushes from around the head and front of the lead animal to make a clearer outline, it would really take this to the next level IMO Dave.

Excellent work, Dave! No remote signs you removed the brush around the head of the lead animal. I love the layers in your image, and the way you framed the shot with the trees, particularly the large dark tree on the left. That tree gives your image a very artistic feel, in my opinion. Beautiful work!!!

You got it, now , Dave (last tweak). The lead animal really shows up well and it looks quite natural. Great job!
