Hi Will, personally I feel this has more going for it tan the pervious one. Glad you picked one without a wing tag. :bg3:

I know we see thing differently but a a slight increase in Vibrancy just to add some richness, as the colouration lends itself to that, plus I would just add an RGB Curves adj within ACR just to get some deeper tones, but well done it getting this one. :cheers:

Hey Will, This is another soft light beauty. Love the sharpness and the dorsal view of the wings.

with love, artie

I love the angle of the bird on this shot. The left wing tips seemed to have been cut. Just curious if you cloned out something.

[William Dickson]

Thanks for the comments...No cloning Eric...the tips of the birds left wing are slightly curled upwards

That's a beaut Will!

Sweet early banking pose, great eye contact, subtle hint of clouds in the blue sky. I love that you can even see the finer detail in the nasal feathers.

Composition works nicely, an all around winner IMO!

[John Mack]

Nice to see the faint clouds. The pose is nice as well.

Hey Will

What a beauty, well done, you must have been very close but still have DoF at f4. Sharp everywhere and well exposed, fantastic
