Default Poultry Portraits: The Complete Series

My new model works for chicken feed! Look, I know it is silly and all, but I am having a good time with the beautiful feathers of this guy. Lots of practice with the selection tool to make the black background. I will try to stop posting these, I promise.

Thanks for humoring me!

You know, you don't need humoring. You need high praise. These are so darn good! I recently said to someone that I was surprised there aren't more chicken photos on the forum and then you show up with these. The colors, texture, expressions are just wonderful. Great job!

Well I agree please don't stop, these are wonderful shots. I think he was really posing in the second shot, you took something most folks would find common or ordinary and made them look extraordinary !!
Very nice work. Looking forward to seeing more.

Thanks you guys! I am so enamored with those colors...

You should have seen me coaxing it; I kept saying "watch the birdie," but maybe I should have said "watch the human!"
