Hi everyone. This is my first thread, so here goes. C & C welcome.

Hi tony! welcome to BPN! This is very nice action shot but it could be more contrasty and lighter .. In my opinion doing some expose correction and raising contrast in PS can help you so much ! thank you!

Hi Tony,
Welcome to BPN!
Nice action but it looks a bit dark on my monitor

[Tony Mitchell]

Thanks for the comments. I agree it needs to be a bit brighter, but I did not want the white feathers on the wings to become washed out. I need to work on my Photoshop skills in this regard.

Tony,

How about this?

Cropped a little bit closer to get rid of 3rd bird. Levels adjustment in Photoshop

THis type of action is very often what at least I want, but rarely get. Congratulations. With the cropping it's also better.

Sid,

Thanks. Yes, that is better, although as I said in my previous reply, I don't want the white feathers to become blown out. I have some other pictures taken on the same morning - I will work on them and see if I can improve on the first attempt.
