I shot this image in Long Island sitting next to the infamous Grace Scalzo:p:D. I did a poster effect and a color-efex bi-color filter on it. Did some clean-up cloning. It's a bit tight -esp. for me but I did like the way it looked.
Sorry I didn't get a chance to work on any reflection images yet.
I will post some images from my trip to Maine as soon as I get them all downloaded :D
Hi Denise, Nice interaction between the two and good wing position. Not easy getting this shot due to all the groundcover. Well done!
Denise: Great subject matter, subtle background colors, well chosen filters(not overdone) and good sharp edges where they are important. Good job! regards~Bill
looks really nice and I like the gradient. Super behavior catch, congrats.
For "my" taste a bit more color separation of skimmer would be an enhancement.
And maybe not.....here is a suggested alternative to look at. Still room on the highlight
side without blowing. I white balanced the scene a bit and up saturated the green a tad.
we can still do pp repost within the thread I assume
Dave and Bill thankyou for your kind words.
:)Dave, The re-post looks great!! thanks-yes we can still do re-works on images posted.:)
Denise, a lovely, lovely moment captured. Never had the opportunity to see this species. Both versions work very well and I really love the bird on the right with beak open sticking out of the grasses waiting for a meal.
John, Thankyou , This was my first time to see them also. It was an amazing afternoon.
Great capture, Denise. Nice subtle job with the filters, too.
Great capture Denise! i like it lots. You owe me a pic from Maine remember? ;)
Thanks, guys -I appreciate the comments!.
Akos, I will send you an image :) from Maine.
Nice capture Denise, I think the repost by Dave gives it a bit more punch. Nice black and whites.
Great capture Denise. And a beautiful use of the filters:)

Excellent composition, Denise. The base image itself is excellent. Love the way you have captured the interaction and then enhanced with pp.
