Just an urban turkey out for a daily walk, probably part of a resolution for the new year - empty as many bird feeders as possible!
Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.

NB1 - In case you want to try it, here is my method for hand-held "Turbulentics-Style" Photos:
Shooting
- Turbulentics works best in bright sunlight.
- Set ISO high enough to force a high f-stop (ISO 400 here).
- Use auto-focus.
- Use a zoom lens so you can isolate the water you want.
- Use stabilization (built into lens or camera + luck).
- Shoot shutter-priority with a slow-ish shutter speed (1/30s here),
- Since you are shooting hand-held at a slow shutter speed, take several spontaneous shots. Getting a sharp image is partly luck at slow shutter speeds.
- Get a resultant high f-stop (f/29here) which will give you lots of depth of field, even though you are shooting telephoto.
Editing
According to your taste;
- Tilt colors toward blue or green
- Saturate colors & raise the contrast..
- Sharpen luminance to emphasize the long sprays created by the slow shutter speed.
NB2 - My all-time most-viewed Flickr photo is one of these kinds of shots:
