This weeks challenge, is from myself. (Hint I need some images!!!. Please send a medium with html code and a link to a larger version)

The rules are simple, edit the image anyway that you see fit.
Remember, to post the steps you took to acheive your final product. This challenge is as much about learning as it is about sharing with others so that they may learn.

Now, let's see what you would do!

It was Eddie's time to shine! His solo for the Chicken Dance, but with the spotlight on him he got nervous. He completely forgot to "flap his wings". However, he found redemption when it was time to "Shake his tail feathers!" You should have seen him!



Duplicated layer; selected flapping bird; put him in his own layer and moved; duplicated him again and moved; duplicated again moved and flipped him; merged those down; created a transparent layer and selected the spotlight area around "Eddie", filled the selection with white and reduced the layer opacity; cropped, adjusted levels, cloned and did some masking along the way.

Very nice guys!
Heres what i came up with. silly I know. Cropped image down. On a new layer added chrome effect. Changed blend mode to overlay. Duplicated again and left the blend mode on overlay. Lowered opacity. Added AAA foto frame. Used selection tool to trace small area right inside the first frame and selected AAA fot frame again

You think yours is silly when we've made these poor birds do the chicken dance and sing as a choir?

Very fun!
