    This is the same pair of razorbills (a different pose) from my previous thread (All you need is love). Thanks for all your comments on the previous thread and I have taken on board the comments from Daniel and Steve and paid more attention to the darks on the head area of the birds.

    Miguel here is another from this series as requested

    Thanks for having a look

    Oh yes, the blacks are much richer and void of the noise that was so apparent in the previous image. I also like the amount of space on both sides of the subjects. Very well done on the adjustments you did for this one.

    Great balance in the comp on this one William. I'd be tempted to bring out the eyes a bit.

    Another beautiful shot from the series! Love the framing, exposure, BG and poses of the pair. Well done!

    great detail in both whites and blacks, interaction between the two birds takes it to the next level.

    well done!

    This image clearly demonstrates importance of proper RAW processing. the earlier post suffered from heavy noise which was easily fixed here

    Well done William, a far better image for all the right reasons, great to see you implementing what you have learnt as it certainly has paid off.

    BTW I almost stopped off for a cuppa on my way back along the A915/A92 last month.

    Very nice indeed, I would still lighten the blacks a tad on the right hand bird around the eye area, also brighten the eye a little too.

    All been said . Very nice. Would certainly lighten the head a teeny bit on the right bird.

    You should have Steve, we could have photographed the eiders in the harbour

    Very nice William. Much better than the last one, had to go back and look as I wasn't around, and the exposure look killer. I also like the interaction between the two. Well done
