Pure White By AudeS Reloaded

  
This is a present for my friend . I got one of his beautiful pictures of a budgie and I retouched it. Hope you like it!
When I have a lot of ideas of manips in my head and I don't know how to start I take a time in making one of a budgie. I usually choose one of mines. Over all one who is gone like a tribute of his/her friendship. But although I had chosen Bartolo and he is with me still I couldn't resist the temptation to modify the AudeS picture. His shot was very good. The figure of the budgie was sharp. I have only done a smooth correction of lights and color and a new background.
When I watch it I think it could be my beautiful Violeta or my wonderful Meli. They are not with me. They both were albino. But AudeS budgie was totally white and if you observed Violeta carefully you could distinguish the typical waves in the back of the budgies in another shade of white. As a matter of fact I've never seen another with this peculiarity.
I always thought that Meli was like the one in AudeS picture but it was a mistake. One day I discovered in a photo I took of her she has shades of very pale blue in her belly. I thought it was a effect of the light. But when I watched Meli I discovered that those shades existed.
AudeS`picture could be a tribute for them and for all the albino budgie pets and wild ones, anyway.

I cannot forgot to give a lot of thanks:
