Bee-eater # 2

[Sanjeev Aurangabadkar]

This is another pose of a Green Bee-eater, this time I cropped vertical and toned downed the brightness of the perch. Cloned out some distracting twigs. Hope you like the pose and head angle.

Sanjeev the bird and the Bg looks spot on to me, with a lovely pastel effect, would love to see it with a bit tighter crop, just my personal view of course, and still very good as presented.

regards Keith.

Looks lovely to me Sanjeev. Not sure how big the crop is, but it could use another round of sharpening. TFS. Loi

This bee-eater gave you some nice frames. I like the portrait format and your processing. I am with Keith, it looks like you have lots of wonderful feather detail which I would like to see a bit more of with a slightly tighter crop. Cheers, Ian
