    Hi Kambiz, This is a killer dorsal view and you really rocked the colors in the soft light. Some folks may wish for a just a bit more canvas behind the bird and I would not argue with that. It would be easy to lose the o-o-f white blobs along the bottom frame edge if that fits with your personal ethics.

    Keep 'em coming. With love, artie

    Ditto the nice dorsal view, and the soft light, topside is my favorite view of the ibis. to my eye the sharpest focus was on the near wing, I might try to sharpen the body just a tad more. BG needs some NR and agree with loosing the oof blobs

    Gorgeous colors on the Ibis, shown nicely in the dorsal view. Nice BG. The NR helps, as does the added sharpening on the wings. The head seems a bit crunchy now.
