Aside from two comments about possible halos by the legs (see image next), the general consensus was that there were no indications of any monkeying around.   <\/p>\n<p>So let&#8217;s try it again.  If you can detect any evidence of Photoshop chicanery, please leave a comment and state your case.  Let us know if you think that I have removed a bird or birds or a rock or rocks from the background.  How about a rope or a wooden structure?  Might I have replaced the bird&#8217;s eye or even worse, its whole head?  Do you see any funky looking pixels or evidence of sloppy Clone Stamp Tool work?  Be sure to click on the image to see the larger version as you gather evidence of manipulation.  <\/p>\n<p>In any case, please let us know by leaving a comment.
