OK, Danny, since you started it! This is an image from today of a light morph Ferruginous Hawk turning the tables on a harassing Raven and chasing it instead. Processed on phone using Painteresque app to look like a watercolor.
Taken at the Las Vegas National Wildlife Refuge in Northern New Mexico.

Very nice Joe and suits the action in this. Ha, very unusual to see a Hawk chasing those Joe. Here we have the magpie that chases the hawks and so do the lapwings. Certainly not the other way around :) Neat shot to start with. I imagine the Raven won the race easily ;)

Great effect in there and I like how it all goes from right to left, even the effects. that gives it a leading perspective, a tunnel effect.

All the best Joe and a unique shot to go with it.

Danny.

Yes Danny, the Raven won and continued his fun. I've heard about the nasty Magpies in Australia. I guess you have them too.

Great interaction and I love your processing - it makes me think of twilight, when we get a sort of 'blue hour' in the shift between sun and moon light. Well done Joe!
