The wrong side of the sunshine

This is the best that I managed today...

While the sun was out I was writing staff reports :cry:

Aesthetically, I'd crop the bottom and the right edge of the image, to move the bunny off the centre and into a third - there are two out of focus white 'bits' on the image, one top right, one inner bottom right, and the crop would effectively remove them too, because ATM they're needless distractions:

Jono; Is that a wild one?

Stuart, the crop is fine, but that color is a lill iffy to me, like purple.
I photograph mostly wildlife, including rabbits, but never seen one like this before! :)

I did the levels while I was doing the crop, and fed it a little saturation to the green because it looked flat - but that's the colour it shifted to when I took the levels up to bump up the image... maybe a colour cast on the shot, I'll have another play...

There, how's this one??



Did an eyedropper on a midtone, filled a layer, inverted it, and used it as a colour overlay at about 35-40% - no more purple...

Hang on... this close to easter... purple... it's a Cadbury Rabbit... catch the damn thing, it'll be FULL of chocolate...

The original colour is about right for the wild rabbits we had in Australia. Probably brought here from England way back as a source of food. I could be wrong about that.

Not so many around now, after a couple of radical eradication programs.

Rabbit Stew anyone?

A nice rich tomato sauce and some herbs and cooked slowly for a few hours.

Served with Mashed Potatoes and seasonal vegetables.

It was a wild one..
I was was out looking for a Barn Owl .. who never showed up.
He he is the day before but I was not ready!!

cheers all for the comments
