Sigma 50-500mm
640 ISO

Slight crop.

Few highlights removed,
As you can see in the same red sandstone quarry.
Certainly a rarity these days.

It's a lovely dove but that snag is really killing the image for me b/c it's such a huge distraction.

I did wonder Marina.
Had a bit of a go at it.
PP not my forte I,m affraid !!
Cheers

Much better -- you got rid of it nicely. Now a little crop from the right? And maybe a touch from the top?

Colors seem biased toward pink-magenta.
