I ran this through SPE and gave it a textured look.

I'm curious what you think - yay or nay? Thank you for the views, and comments.

I am not a great fan of textures Sandi. I prefer things shown as they are. In my opinion here the texture is fine as background but not on the bird. Good capture of this big bird.

Strangely enough, I must admit that as keen as I am on manipulations these days including textures etc, I would agree with Raj. The textures here work very well as the background indeed, but do not make the bird too much more charming [if this is a female, then you might land in trouble:)].
The case looks the same every time one asks opinion of the others :) Half and half and one is left alone to decide! LOL

Textures are very artistic and can be done in many ways. It's like the old adage...beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I like this! Good work, Sandi.

I think with the color of the bird and the background the textures work quite well .
Beautiful and artistic.

Stunning looking capture and I love how the background blends in with the colours of the crane plus lovely detail in this capture and superb close up and composition too Sandi. Also very artistic looking photography as well.

Yes, yay, good textures Sandi. It works for some people and not for others. I like paintings...a lot...so this gets close to that.
