#49297 Anyone who takes pictures has a few of these shots, maybe a lot of them. This was the perfect pose on the perfect limb, and I missed it. I could not bring myself to delete the image because I liked the composition so much. I decided to try Photoshopping it and seeing what could come of it. I used paint daubs very fine and ended up with a pointillist Chinese painting looking thing. Lesson learned, I will not delete soft photos anymore with strong compositions. I think this is legitimate photo art. I wish it had been a legitimate photo, but the fallback is not too bad.

I write about my photo exploits on my Arkansas gallery and blog. I encourage everyone to visit it, http://arkansaswildlifephotography.com. You might wish to visit this place. It has a lot to offer photographers. All my nature photos are taken within 30 miles of my home, and most are within 15.
