Extra Details: I used the patch tool in photoshop to remove the feeder. Then followed up polishing that effort by using the clone and healing brush.
I made a slight adjustment using vibrance.

I opened up MCP’s Fusion and choose color fusion mix and match. From there I played around with different choices and decided I liked.
One click color at 38%
Ellie’s Field of Dreams at 50%
Peachy at 27%

I then changed the size of the image, entered my copyright then finished it off with the free MCP’s high definition sharpening.
