After consulting two guides, I'm pretty sure my ID is correct but obviously I'm not totally confident so please confirm if you would. This is almost full frame and I added canvas on the right. C&C encouraged and appreciated. Thank you for looking!

Reason: needed to correct canvas addition
Nice job with the +EC Katie. The bird looks pretty good! If you're going to add canvas, it helps to blend it with what's adjacent to it. When I add canvas, I use the bucket tool first; I select a representative color from an adjacent area and 'pour' it into the newly added canvas. Then I use the clone or brush tool as needed to add matching environment to the new canvas.
Love the pose and raised foot !!! The area by the tail looks a little strange Did you have to open up? I like Doug's suggestion for adding the canvas and there are others also !!! Will have a motif in the future for adding canvas !!! :)
Hi Katie,
Now I see it!!
Beautiful bird and lovely detail - that foot is a killer!! Well done...
Regards,
Nicki
PS I'm looking forward to that tutorial on adding canvas!
Hi Katie,
This is very nice, I like the capture and pose with the raised foot. Agree with Doug about adding the canvas...good show...keep them coming...:cool:
Katie, I love the raised foot and bird is nice and sharp. I think the angle is pretty good too, considering these guys are always way up high. I may be the only one but I find maybe just a bit more room to the left might not be a bad idea, tail looks pretty close to the edge.
Motif: Red-shouldered Hawk?
