Common Grackle's Colors

[Ryan Schain]

At the right angle, I love the colors of these birds.

Good job in capturing the iridescence these guys have in their feathers, while there is nothing wrong with the comp I would be tempted to crop it into a pano to lose some of the OOF grass on the bottom.

Iridescence shows up well in this portrait, Ryan. I agree with the pano suggestion, and would also like to see a little more canvas to the right. Nice capture.

[Fabs Forns]

Iridescence caught nicely but you need to take a few points of saturation away. Purple is showing artifacts from over processing. I like the crop as presented :)

nice pose and low angle, agree with Fabs that it shows color artifacts as a result of over-sharpening.
