I really like the light that is reflected via the water onto the feathers. Nice to see this on the front page today!

Thanks Rebecca, I used PS Elements 2.0, I have 7.0 but Elements is much easier, I've seen it as low as $59 bucks at Sam?s Club. I have two books that have really come in handy. One is: 40 Digital Photo Retouching Techniques, Author Zack Lee, Go Digital series, Youngjin.com. The second one is; the digital Photographer's guide to Photoshop Elements by Barry Beckham, LARK BOOKS. Both these books to me are worth every penny and I use them all the time, they have step by step guidance on all kinds of effects, clean-up and object removal.
I hope this helps.

Thanks Judi, I liked the first one also but I thought I'd try Pat's sugestion and I like the results, plus I need to learn more about PS and that give me a good go at it. I added you to my friends list too. I saw your almost nude pic.... hehehehehe. I like female naked friends .. lol, you have a wonderful portfolio.

Stuart, I actually liked the other one also. The markings around the outside helped direct the eye to the image whilst giving it an almost abstract but unique feel about it.
All the same, it is an excellent shot. I have added you to my friends list after seeing your portfolio.
