Finally: real signs of a spring that is here to stay…..the snow is melting and the birds are back! And singing away!! Unfortunately most of the robins are just passing through as part of their migration, but some will stay.
So a 3-stage ZIZO was calling to me:
The colours are very intense since I modified all 3 images with grunge style HDR before assembling the collage. I also learnt a trick since last week. I had mentioned that I didn’t like the Picasa border colours, and a comment on last week’s ZIZO suggested trying Fotor.com instead. I tried it but wasn’t too fond of the site…Picasa has alot more options available. But I did find that I could modify the Picasa border colour in PSE with the paint bucket so problem solved!!
To see what everyone else is up to, check the ZIZO widget in the sidebar.

Lovely pictures! The colour is stunning.
I love your gelatin prints too.

Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. The answer to your question is that the red birds in my photo are Scarlet Ibis. I had to smile when I repaid the visit and found red birds in your ZIZO too! What beautiful robins, they are very vivid especially against the blue sky. I’ll be visiting again, I am in the process of buying a Gelli plate and love what you have printed with yours.

I think it’s amazing that there are so many birds in the tree in that second shot.

Sorry Fotor didn’t float your boat – but well done on matching your border colours anyway. Great sunny shots – love the intensity of the emergent red.

Our robins will stay around most of the summer and fall. Love the orange and the bright blue sky.
