Text reads: Greater Yellowleg Often referred to as a “marshpiper.” Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge sits along the Columbia River in Washington. This was out first trip there. March 19, 2023

Construction: I started with of FotoBlendz Overlays No 2 #3, clipping my photo to the entire group. Then I added FB Overlay #1, clipping my photo to two of the mask layers to fill in at the bottom for the main photo’s reflection. I turned off, moved and revised colors on several FB Overlay layers.
I extracted the bird, duplicated the extraction with blending mode Screen and placed a drop shadow on the lower layer.
I added the palette’s Vintage Brown Paper Frame behind the FB Overlays, adding ArtsyKardz 6X4 Eunoia #1 above the Frame mask layer and then clipped just the Kardz Paper layer to the mask.
The cluster is MultiMedia Flowers No 14 #1 with the threads and button from #2.
