Nice Perch. I guess you can increase the exposure a bit more, reduce the contrast. Very difficult to tell with out knowing the histogram.

can you share the histogram so that we can better understand the exposure.

thanks for sharing.

Drenched for sure. Where was this image made? The bird is too centered and too dark. I moved the bird back in the frame and applied my NIK COlor EFEX Pro 50/50 recipe to the bird only. with love, artie

Hey Arthur, this image was made on the wildlife drive at Montezuma national wildlife refuge. I applied too much contrast in post processing. Your version is spot on.
