I'm probably not the first to think of this, but I came up with the idea just today. The idea is to use the Vignetting filter on a layer mask for example to create a depth blur. Here is an image of an Eagle in a tree I shot today and applied this effect. It would make a good Desktop background.

Looks like a young, healthy eagle. Do they eat people's chickens?

These Eagles eat mostly fish from the river they live on. I have seen Eagles attack and eat baby goslings though. They are scavengers and will eat dead animals now and then. Never seen them eat chickens, but it is certainly possible.
