(Main) photography->manipulation
A hawk landed on a fencepost as I was driving down a busy highway. I was going 60mph at the time. I turned around, drove back by the hawk, and after a safe distance, turned around again and drove slowly back. That is the good news. The bad news is all that I had was my Nikon Coolpix S9500. I had left the Nikon D7000 with the big gun at home. It stayed long enough for me to get one shot.
The texture is courtesy of Lenabem-Anna J. on Flickr.

Music is what feelings sound like.
This makes me think of Hawk Harrelson, and the song "By The Light of The Silvery Moon." Herman The Worm sang ...I was sitting on my fence post chewing my bubble gum...but I'm afraid that ol' Herman wouldn't last too long around that hawk. lol. Beautiful work on this, Tick. I love the texture you used.

You got the light shining on the hawk Tick and you did a good job with the manipulation.

This is beautiful work of art...the harvest moon, the hawk on the post, the field of grain. I like it very much.

Very nice work! Excellent result!
I took a similar hawk photo recently, and it needs a background, I may have to try something similar.

What ever happened to the good ol' days?
Tick, I've had the same thing happen to me ... except when I reached into my purse my Nikon Coolpix wasn't in there & I left the big gun at home.
I like the textured postwork & the moon adds some lighting around the hawk. Outstanding!

Way to make the most out of a little. I am guessing an immature
Red Tail. They are not as skidish. Also the large amount of white on the breast. The feathers turn red on the adults.

...and the really good news is that it all turned out pretty freakin' terrific after all, even using the Coolpix. Your post-shutter work really paid off, Ron. This is outstanding.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Tick - The texture in post-photo work adds much to this fine image. Kudos! Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
Tick I like every thing about this light composition subject color texture pixel perfect work hats off to you frame and sell to a gallery.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

It's not the camera that makes the shot great, but the photographer. And this is one great shot.

Tick, excellent art. BTW, look at all the artists who commented on your 2014 picture who are no longer with us on Caedes.

Must say however that you've achieved the optimal result by using your creativity and the S9500, resulting in a picturesque creation/manipulation.
Very well done Owd Fella!
