Stuck in my craw

D70s 70-200VR 2X @400mm 1/1600 f5.6 ISO400 0EV

I found my peregrine falcon again (for the second time) this morning. With my setup I could not get nearly as close as I'd like, necessitating a heavy crop. In Lightroom the image also got some very minor touches, along with heavy NR and sharpening. C & C, please.

White balance appears to be a bit off.

Levels adjustment:

Hi Wendell,
I like the capture, I would clone out the diagonal log to the right of the frame...I like the white balance adjustment done by Dave...looking forward to your next one...:cool:

Wendell, nice shot w/ a good re-post from David.Wish it had a better HA

Good capture Wendell Crop held very well !! Not sure how the white balance got out of whack but re post by Dave sure looks good

For checking WB look at areas that are supposed to be white (grey or black are also good) and look for color casts, after a while will be easy!!!!

Good post Wendell. Good detail. Agree with comment about diagonal log. Lesson learned for me about wb and colour cast. Good repost.
