Very attractive, very nice exposure....
I think the bird itself could even go a tad lighter, although I would hold the BG.
Hi Joe, love the soft light here, and you have captured excellent detail on the face. The HA is just right, and those reds stand out very well against the BG.
What a perfect specimen in wonderful breeding form!
Image seems a bit dark overall and I would select the ibis and lighten him.
I love the details of the feathers on the left shoulder,
Gail
What a great looking individual! Perhaps a touch dark, yes, but still a wonderful look at the breeding colours.
Thanks everyone for viewing and commenting, very much appreciated. I will revisit the image to brighten the whites a bit. Thanks again.
I love the red and white in this bird.
Well done Joseph, an appealing image to me as is.
