There's no such thing as cheating in photography only creativity. Like always Troy you did that Downy proud.

Kent County, New Brunswick, CANADA
has to be one of the world's best kept secret. It is bordered by the sea to the east and is made up of small villages, farms, forest, brooks and rivers. I have lived here all my life and
would recommend it to anyone.

Very nice. Great sharpness,exposure and color! Are you sure you didn't "cheat" some more and take this in studio conditions? ;-)a
I also like how it shows the bird using his stiff tail for support. Nice job.

Nice shot Troy. It's not cheating as long as the peanut butter was "accidentally" inserted in there.:D
