Mr. RED

Description

We had a white rooster named George once, but he was MEAN! This ole rooster, who I call Mr Red, let me get close enough for several shots before he decided to take a nap. Taken on a partly cloudy day, in the shade. Painted over the B/G to remove distracting vegetation, cropped, adjusted curves, white balance, contrast and clonned out flaws. Thankd for looking!! *Animals/Wildlife*
