 Both real turkeys. Shot out the car window xmas day. Processing is something along the lines of an excluded inversion or an inverted exclusion, I forget which. You don't want to see the original. You are getting very sleepy. You don't want to see the original. Every day in every way you are feeling better and better. Snap.

Yes, like a brush painting. Excellent inversion. Not real, but real. (And the strangest not quite fearful symmetry in the scoring).

Perfect processing makes these the wildest birds in the challenge.

I'm not a big fan of the effect here.

Had to come back to this one after thinking on it awhile. Really different processing, but ... there's some personality there in the tilt of their heads, and the details of their environment and feathering are plainly evident. Reminds me a bit of an Oriental woodblock print. Really quite an interesting image.

Beautiful. Looks like wallpaper in a castle.

I find the choice of the negative to be curious. It really makes me want to see the original to compare it.

Sigh... I'm afraid the post-processing has killed this for me. I would like to see the original.

This is really cool processing. It almost looks like a painting.
