Okay, i think this is a western red shouldered hawk, juvie. This was taken with Gail B and David Salem a few years back, great shooting trip. This is my very first dive into adding a wing tip. I always liked this frame but was also very disappointed that the top feather was cut off bout an inch. In PS I added canvas on top and content aware, whammo, wing tip. Then i slimmed it down a wee bit bc there was a lil bulge, so overall i was happy with the result. Also, the darkest feathers seem to have a bluish cast to them so i reduced cyan in selective color a couple of points. The head/body was always sharp. i think an artificial wingtip with full disclosure is okay although i really wish i hadn't clipped it to start with. Any suggestions? Thanks
