Well, I was going to post a couple more babies this week but I'll stop here. Just a simple Mallard chick but I get good vibes when I look at this so thought it's worth sharing.
Note - I masked lit feathers on top of the head so they are as close to raw as possible, to avoid over sharpening (it almost appeared crunchy to me but all you see is 149/.8 in C1). Also, the feathers under the chin are that way in the RAW, not a cloning issue or cut out. Got enough of the right foot to make me happy.
Cleaned up some little plants popping up in the water and touched the eye in the reflection a bit with a clone from the next image in the series. Minor land clean up. I know IQ is just hanging on, please fire away....
