I also like the drops on the water and the exposure looks overall pretty nice to me too. Yes to selectively sharpening the head. It looks great against the blue water too. Well done Joseph.
Come join me for a Custom Raptor Workshop starting this November 2019- January 2020.
P.M. me to inquire on dates, pricing and availabilities. Thank You. www.davidsalemphotography.com
Pretty much perfect from where I sit. Killer job on the whites, SH, killer BKGR, and the water droplets put it over the top. Now get the same image with red lores :)
What date? Time?
with love, artie

Hi Artie, the date is 4/12/2018 at 8:33 AM. The water is this pond at Circle B Bar Reserve was drying up, Snowy Egrets and Tri-colored Herons were making passes across the water dip fishing. Thank you for viewing and commenting.
