Stormy

The wetlands in Florida take on a very different mood when the huge storms come through. Still, the mating and courtship displays continue through ALL weather.
I tried to capture that dark moodiness here, with de-saturation,  levels adjustments, then fratalius, and topaz filters.

Your artistic renditions are beautiful.  This is no exception.

Stunning, creative photo art, Sandy.  How you have surrounded the egret with the black and white abstract patterns that complement the sunburst pattern of the birds feathers, is incredible.  The touch of color is perfect.
