Passeggiata Liguria

I saw these two ducks strolling on the beach as I walked down to Portofino from the train, from Santa Margherita di Liguria, Italy. I used a Melissa Gallo canvas texture, then Swirly Strokes II from Topaz Impression. The final photo was enlarged by 250% in Topaz AI Gigapixel to a final dimension of 8640 pixels square. Here it is downsized to 1280 square for the forum. A domestic setting.

This is awesome! Love the process given. Is this two images combined?

The images were first the ducks, then the texture layer - this was flattened and then finally the blue wall/table put in place behind them - drop shadow added, plus tops of the leaves superimposed.

Nicey thought out and executed and an interesting way to present a duck image. I like the textures and the complementary background colour too.
