The bird is cut out using the GML's GrowCut Mask filter.
The background of what appears to be glass was achieved using Alien Skin Xenofex 2 Shatter feature.
Lighting is made with the Render Lighting Effects plugin.
The above are all 8bf.
I did tweek the cutout with the stock cutting tools in my PFS 8.0.2 software, and also the text is done using text in a very light grey, then captured with the select wand and applying the contour 3D feature under filter - stylize. Gamma + is applied to the text, shading with the Gamma touch up, and finally sharpened once.
& thanks for the explanations...
