Jacky Winter portrait

[Dean Ingwersen]

Hi all,

Well I finally got my gear back from Canon after dropping it about 6 weeks ago, so I'll be back taking new images soon enough. For the moment here is an image from a couple of months ago of a Jacky Winter...one of the robin family in Australia.

Canon 20D, 500mm + 1.4TC, f/7.1, 1/200, ISO 100, AV @ 0.
PS CS2 - sh-h, levels, curves, sat, clone of two twigs, usm.

Thanks for looking.

Compostion, light, BG, pose, eye contact, all inp lce! Very nice! Maybe a bit more temperature would help, I like it! Congratulations!

A fine image Dean - I like the typical pose, composition, detail and background.

I am hungry for cool Australian images. Keep them sending.
This one I like very much. The pastel coloration is very nice.
No idea if my screen is incorrect but a bit more sharpening would be useful... based on what I see.

Thanks for the comments. Gyorgy..looks okay on my monitor but I could probably get away with a bit more on the sharpening...thanks.
