    Hi All,

    Here is another image from my recent Bryce Canyon National Park Trip.

    Common Raven was curious with what I am trying to do, Apparently everyone is photographing landscapes and not photographing it ....


    Nikon D500, 300 f/4
    ISO 1250, f/5.6, 1/640 sec
    Manual Mode, Matrix Metering

    Post processing:-

    Image had blue color cast, which was eliminated in Photoshop, I cropped a bit at the bottom and remove blue items at the top left using content aware fill.
    Nik Color effect (30-30) on the bird, Noise reduction using Neat Image

    I like the high key look of the image. I wish, the image did no have the bright patch of light which created highlights, I could not do anything about the same.

    Let me know your thoughts and comments.

    Thanks for watching.

    Thanks
    Krishna

    I think you've achieved quite a good result in difficult circumstances, Krishna. I can see good detail and tone on all of the bird - and it is clearly very interested in what you are doing (or maybe looking what food you have?). I think it might be possible to extract a bit more contrast on the front of bird through a selective adjustment to that part. Colour balance looks good. I wonder if a slightly tighter crop would work better here - maybe worth a try?

    Krishna, Hi key shots are always hard as far as subject matter goes, I wonder if this would look better in B&W?
    anther thing that's missing for me is the awesome beak of the Raven.
