From Morton WR with Terry and Lou. Many birds and many opps. And a great day as well.

Very nicely done. I love the choice of the perch as well as the BG! You got a nice side profile. It looks like it may be a bit bright/overflashed IMO. All in all well done.

[Taylor Yeager]

I like the open beak and perch. Agree that it looks a bit over flashed. Maybe try -2.

[Arsdel Fluesmeier]

Very well done Joe. A nice Xmas card.

Very festive look to the composition. All it needs is a bit o snow or Ice crystals to compete the tablau. Great BG. Have to agree, however, with other comments, the whites in the bird are blown and there is a loss of detail as a result. Can't beat the composition, though. ;-)

As presented the reds and yellows are overexposed. A simple Levels check reveals that. I deSAT-ed those channels and did a 50% Linear Burn on the whites. I love the overall COMP but for the small leaf in the ulc. The head angle is less than ideal.

Great setting, BG, pose and details. The repost makes a major difference.

Thanks Much Artie. Always good to get a little help from one of the best.

You are most welcome sir. Thanks for your kind words.
