Urban Mama Chicken

As I scrolled down, I thought--hey, maybe I don't need the chicken's head in the picture at all! Crop here?

amended crop, the more headless, the better

Feral chickens live, love, and dodge buicks in the Big Pine Key Shopping Plaza.

I know it looks cut and pasted, but trust me, I'd have pasted onto a nicer background (I still might). I had to select out and blur the background because it was in sharp focus and looked like mama chicken's head was plastered to the headlight.

Now they kind of look like they're on a cliff, don't they?

Why do I get haloes around everything? I did a quick mask and spent a long time getting the selection right, but no matter what I did, there'd still be some residual crap n shite.

Didn't look cut and paste to me KLP.

And well it's almost a duck and the previous comment would add to this.

@KLP: Some of the halo effect is not just from PS contrast & sharpening tools, but also from the JPEG compression & Flickr's way of handling things.

I agree with the crop suggestion - Mama's head is an unecessary accessory in this photo.

They are very cute.

It's just not a great photo. The crop is awkward.

Awww...little fuzzy wuzzies.
Since there's no way this is making it into the Folio, I'll give you a save for the fuzzy-wuzzie factor.
