Hi Dorian ... nicely done with the typical super low shooting angle and the orange sunset is just gorgeous .
Pose is nice and the overall comp as well .
Just the Sanderling is a bit flat and too cold for my taste .
Just two tweaks and layers for the RP , one for tone and one for color on the subject .
Thank you for the feedback. Andreas, I agree my bird looks flat compared to like your repost. I was able to generate this updated version using your repost a loose guide. Cheers.
Looks better to me ...
After reading Jack´s thoughts , i think he is " correct" .... it is backlit afterall .
As a consequence i might go really dark within the subject and push the FG/BG harder in terms of color and tone.
