Q: Why are some of the contest photos obviously photoshopped?
A: Do you know?

This male and a female have shown up outside of our living room picture window every year for 6 or 7 years now. The window is somewhat reflective and they see their own images which they attack with fair abandon. They start shortly after dawn each day and keep it up for several hours. The male stopped for a snack while I took this picture through the window.

This is one of three photos that was part of a photo project that received a Merit Award from the NY Institute of Photography. The other two, Tight Corner and Dragonfly, are also posted here at JPG.
