Birdwatcher Sketch
Uploaded: March 28, 2013
"The Birdwatcher" gargoyle; one of 106 different gargoyles adorning the Washington National Cathedral.
He's looking up from his chair, binoculars hanging at his side. His mouth is open to allow the gutter pipe to spit water.
Used a mix of NIK treatments for tone and brightness, with a PS Graphic Pen Filter for the "stroke" effect.
Original capture is in the Discussion Thread.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
