    Great outstretched wing; shows how long these terns' wings are. Nice fish, too.

    Lovely Jon, a great catch for both!

    Do you think having a bit more blue and fractionally dropping the Yellow may help?

    Hi Jon, I keep coming back to this and for once I just cannot put my finger on the reasons why, perhaps it's just the simplicity and the fish? But addressing the Blues & Yellows, then adding a slight Tonal Curve to the image, I do think everything just 'pops' nicely with some fine detail too, WDYT? I applied it to yesterdays JPEG.

    Yes it's an improvement thanks Steve. I have to admit adjusting the yellows had not occurred to me.

    Jon, colour has a strong influence and often it can be the last colour we think of, that can change things, but often a mix.

    Jon, this is something that I have been striving for and you catch this really well. I need to remember about the yellow color correction. Love that repost, Steve.
