    Hi Sanjeev ... looks quite good to me .

    Just asking ... how far you have pushed the HL recovery slider in DPP .... as parts of the perch and the legs/feet looking very very flat with no structure ???

    TFS Andreas

    Are you surprised that I see that you have used the HL recovery ?

    Sanjeev:

    All the angles are what makes this special for me. Nice diagonals of perch, tail, legs, pose.

    Soft background, with a bit of noise in areas. Excellent eye with nice catchlight.

    Cheers

    Hi Sanjeev, beautiful bird, interesting image. Nice background, good feather detail on the bird. I agree with Andreas that something looks funky on the legs. Thank you for sharing.

    Loving this series. Again, sharp where it needs to be and I like the perch framing this beauty. Especially like the parallel tail and perch line. TFS

    Spectacular bird and pose. All those angles are fabulous. The perch and the legs look fine to me. I would lighten up the area in front of the bill just a bit.

    Here is a tip for dealing with specular highlights like those on the legs: working very large, use the Clone Stamp Tool at 33% to cover the brightest highlights ...

    with love, artie
