    Tripod Canon 7D Canon 180mm macro ISO 400 1/60 sec f11. It was dull and slightly breezy, I took a number of images on various ISO from 100-800. It is amazing how much the colours change with the differing ISO ratings. I also played around with the camera calibration setting in ACR raw, this one was Camara Faithful., I usually use Adobe standard but often find the yellows are high in the initial conversion and I have to take some yellow out in Photoshop.
    All C&C welcome.

    Hi Jon. Very nice pose, comp, and background! The red on the seed heads adds a nice touch of color. The wing tips look a bit soft to me - maybe a little selective sharpening would help? Also, the light seems a bit flat (on my laptop) - you might try upping the brightness and contrast a bit to see if it helps.
