seagulls are boring

....... so invent your own birds!
Created from a couple of 'Freshemedia_gradientshapes' from Photoshop Creative's on-magazine CDs, with Photoshop Element's Gradient maps applied to get the rainbow colours. The PSE 'Smudge tool' equipt with a spatter brush was then used to create the feathery effects. The whole bird was then given a drop shadow and a sky from my files was given a touch of desaturation and posterisation and set behind the fanciful bird.
