I optimized Image #1 first but when I posted it, it looked way too dark to me. So I brought it into Photoshop and pulled the curve up a bit. Then, working on a duplicate layer I selected the bird using the Quick Selection Tool and &#8212; using Selective Color &#8212; took out some BLACK from the WHITEs and the Neutrals. I added a Regular Layer Mask and painted away 33% of the lightening on the near-underwing. No NIK or additional sharpening was used on Image #2 which was simply a lightened version of Image #1. Kudos to the many folks who get that right,. <\/p>\n<h3>Alternative Medicine<\/h3>\n<p>About 32 years ago I learned that I had a bleeding ulcer. The diagnosis had been missed by my family physician for several years. When he was on vacation I saw a lady doctor who listened to my symptoms, stuck her gloved finger up my butt, tested for blood, and nailed the correct diagnosis. I was put on Prilosec (the &#8220;purple pill&#8221; of TV advertisements) for seven years. While it alleviated the symptoms, it did nothing to heal my ulcer. <\/p>\n<p>I met Dr. Cliff Oliver about 24 years ago when he attended a Bosque IPT. He counseled me on my eating habits (I asked him &#8230;) and when I told him about my ulcer, he said, &#8220;That&#8217;s an easy one.&#8221; I started a three-month regimen of L-Histidine, L-Glutamine, and DGL, a licorice tablet. My symptoms disappeared in 90 days and so did my bleeding ulcer. I was impressed and have been working with Cliff for nearly a quarter of a century now. <\/p>\n<h3>Dr. Klinghardt on Coronavirus<\/h3>\n<p>Three days ago directed me to a series of YouTube videos, &#8216;Dr. Klinghardt&#8217;s latest discoveries on COVID-19.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>If you would like to see if an alternative view of coronavirus makes sense to you (it does to me), check these out:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=JuJ1NxUiOZs\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Dr. Klinghardt COVID-19 Q&#038;A 10th March 2020<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yIL2FVlaZu4\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Dr. Klinghardt Corona interview Klinghardt Institute March 2020<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=30aqtzIfc1Y\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Dr Klinghardt Corona interview Klinghardt Institute March 25 2020<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Klinghardt is a world-renowned medical doctor and researcher, famous for his ground-breaking work on Autism and Lyme Disease.

I met Joe online in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.birdphotographers.net\/forums\/forumdisplay.php\/2-Avian\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Avian Forum<\/a> at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.birdphotographers.net\/forums\/content.php\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">BirdPhotographer&#8217;s.Net<\/a> about two years ago. Joe&#8217;s photography has improved tremendously over the past few years; he credits the BAA blog, my books and PDFs, and his participation on BPN. The one thing that I learned right from the get-go about Joe is that he is a hard and tenacious worker, always striving to improve his skills and to grow his knowledge base. As he knew of more than a few good spots in central Florida, I broached the idea of us doing a photographic site guide that covered many of the little-known photographic hotspots from Brandon to Lakeland to Joe Overstreet Road to Indian Lake Estates (my Florida home for the past 20 years or so). After more than many, many dozens of hours of effort, The BIRDS AS ART Middle of Florida Photographic Site Guide is now a reality. Thanks to Joe&#8217;s wife Dottie for her review of our writing. We all learned once again that writing is a process, a back and forth process. All thanks to the white pelicans of Lakeland. Here are the locations that are detailed in this e-Guide:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Indian Lake Estates<\/strong>: Sandhills Cranes with chicks and colts, lots of vultures, and Ospreys up the kazoo!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gatorland, Kissimmee<\/strong>: Learn to make great images of wading birds in a cluttered rookery.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The Brandon Rookery<\/strong>: Great for nesting Wood Storks, Great Egrets, and more.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Circle Bar B Reserve, Lakeland<\/strong>: Here you will find a great variety of avian subjects in a great variety of habitats.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lake Morton, Lakeland<\/strong>: There are lots of silly tame birds here including and especially American White Pelican during the colder months.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lake Mirror, Lakeland<\/strong>: Tame Anhingas, Limpkins, and a zillion White Ibises at times.<\/li>\n<li><strong>West Lake Parker, Lakeland<\/strong>: Here you will have a chance for two difficult birds, Snail Kite, and Purple Gallinule.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Joe Overstreet Road, Kenansville<\/strong>: Crested Caracara, meadowlarks, Loggerhead Shrike, and much more on the fenceposts and barbed wire. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each location includes a map, a detailed description of the best spots, best season, light and time of day instructions, the expected species, and an educational and inspirational gallery that is designed to open your eyes as to the possibilities.  <\/p>\n<p>You can purchase a copy <a href=\"https:\/\/birdsasart-shop.com\/the-baa-middle-of-florida-photographic-site-guide\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">here <\/a> in the BAA Online Store.   <\/p>\n<h3>If In Doubt &#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>If you are in doubt about using the BAA B&#038;H affiliate link correctly, you can always start your search by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/?BI\/6633\/KBID\/7226\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.
