Cara Cara

[Michael Pancier]

I was supposed to go to Gainesville today but while on the way my case settled, so I u-turned in Orlando and took the beeline to Viera and saw the cara cara for a brief instance so as to take this shot.

The image portrays this incredible bird really well. The image seems a little too saturated and may benefit from toning down a bit. This would help the orange in the face and the green BG (but the grass is still brown here so I'm not used to greens yet!).

Great catch of an elusive bird. I agree it could be a bit less saturated and ou could perhaps loose some of the left for better compo.
