I thought I'd share some of my attempts to capture the beautiful Bower birds of the Lamington National Park. C&C welcome (including any suggestions as to the best way to remove my husband's hairy arm!)

NIce, but why is it in the canon section?

Good question! You spotted my not so deliberate error.
Is there any way to move or delete this post? :oops:

Lovely pics full of colour and vibrancy.

As to your husbands arm - go to Blockbuster and hire ”The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” and I think you will have the answer :wink:

Lovely shots. Great colours. Re removing husband's arm...choice is between an hour in photoshop or a chainsaw

little edit...oops...Chris got there before me while I was composing...same sick minds ..

Unfortunately I don't yet have Photoshop........but I do have a chainsaw :twisted:

Decided not to use the Chainsaw after all.....used Photostudio instead. Does it work?

Hi Karen

Great pics and glad you picked up some hints on the Trekabout workshops you have been on.

Good job of cloning, too

Cheers

Nearly...you can see some sharp edges where you have "repaired" the foliage where the arm used to be. I don't know Photostudio at all, but if it has an option to soften the edges of the transplant it might be worth using.

I think you should still keep the chainsaw as an option though. :lol:

Some good shots there.

The edit pic without the arm reminds me of Predator in camo mode. Now just want to see the three red dots on the birds chest.
