Some slim pickings in the photography subjects department in NC in November. Still, a nice shiny crow caught my eye. I love their attitude and intelligence. I used an old version of Topaz Simplify [Painting preset] to soften the background a bit.

Glad it caught your eye! Good moment of pose and good BG treatment. I suggest, based on relative mass of bill and prominent nasal rictal filopumes covering the nares that this is a raven- not a common visitor in your area, I would guess!

Not quite "thick" enough for a Raven. And yes, I am familiar with them both.
