Which image do you prefer?
Comments and critiques always appreciated and learned from with thanks,

Nice high key ish effect to this one Gail. I prefer the wing position of the male onthis one. What is DE by the way?

DE means Detail Extractor. A function found within NIK EFEX Pro. It sharpens and brings out detail superbly but must be used in a very modest amount.Originally Posted by John Robinson
This one is wonderful, with great interaction, nice wing position and beautiful Floridian BG. Tough choice, but I think I prefer the earlier post. Great sequence. I might consider a little more room on the left if you have it; maybe a tad off the top.
Lovely effect
i like the wing position , and superb details
exposure is spot on, the 2 tone BG looks lovely to the eye
nice one
Amazing series I love them both, Gail.
Another killer shot from the series, Gail! Excellent exposure, POV, BG and action.
Awesome image Gail. Great angle, nice BG, lovely interaction and sharpness, well done. TFS.
A great sequence. Not in love with the near wing position of the male, plus I wish for less blur in it. More room on the left, yes. And something odd about the male's head? Were you dealing with a halo? Looks ever so slightly fuzzy. Given this, my choice is the first one.
Another killer image from you Gail :-)
Simply awesome. I like the first shot just slightly better but, this is amazing too.
Another beautiful and intimate capture Gail. I agree with the others, a beautiful shot for sure, but the first one is better. Your usual solid techs make this as good as it can be. Great series and love the title again:)
Great timing, great action.
Wonderful image. I like the interaction, details and exposure.
