    I'd also clone out the leg band, but apart from that pretty sweet. Nice light, good wing positions, and I like the water trailing off the feet.

    Hi Robert, this is a gorgeous frame and agree with Dan's comment above, really enjoyed this.

    Just a thought and it probably goes too far away from the original capture, but just some simple tweaks in Curves and some additional sharpening offers another alternative with more pop, but I would suggest the OP needs some more USM to show off that fantastic plumage you initially captured.

    Nice one.

    Thanks for the feedback on the image. It is much appreciated and learned from. Steve thanks for taking the time to rework the image. It looks very good and it does have more pop.

    Really like the fame. Like the repost work. I'd call this the "Michael Jackson". TFS.

    Robert, a really beautiful frame. You can get a lot of mileage from this bird I think as it's so photogenic. Nice details and again, the whites against the pretty blue works great.

    Not sure what the natural like was like at time of capture but perhaps somewhere in between the original and repost might work.
