I like the scene overall, but there a couple of small observations to take note: head angle could be better (a bit more towards us, not much needed), CCW rotation should be done as the image is tilted down left to right, and there are a few bright reflections along the leg that could be toned down - as well as one on the bill's reflection (plus the smudge at tip). Lastly, a couple of white debris could be cloned out in the water. Individually they are all subtle changes...but together they would all add up immensly to the end result :-)
Exposure looks great, so does sharpness, and comp. I like the fish at the end of the bill, and also like the ripple in the water. Here is a repost with my suggestions above(but not much I could do with head angle though ;-) BTW I also eliminated the magenta cast in the water by using color balance in PS. Hope you like.
Nice repost by Daniel, although I kind of like the magenta cast in the water (could be a reflection of the clouds). The eye seems a little dull as posted and might benefit from a little brightening of the iris.
Thanks for your replies!
Daniel Cadieux, I like your version of the image but I consider my version
more 'animate'... I don't know if you understand my point.
Furthermore do I try to use PS as little as possible, but that's just a personal
opnion. I thank you for your attention and your version of the image!
