Hey Mike, Like the image, especially the rose hips (???) Wonderful head angle. Thanks again for all of your help on Monhegan and then again at the Portland seminar. Kristen and I really enjoyed your and Ann's company.

Nice image. I love the perch. It could use a little more room on the right.

This is really outstanding Mike. Love the perch, BG and comp. I feel a round of subtle sharpening may perk up the subject. I tried this in Ps and the image definitely has the detail to take this. I tried 50%, radius = 0.3 and it looked good to me.

HI Mike,

Love the colors and perch. I find the body sharper but I'm sure you can do select the head and apply some sharpening.
