    Another great aerial Judy and so interesting to see the movement of the feathers. The colours are perfect and I wouldn't change a thing.

    Nicely done: perfect head position, sharpness, exposure, and composition. I would take lots of magenta out of the sky and lower the SAT of the reds and the magentas in the whites.

    A beautiful capture to be sure....I agree with Artie on tweaking the colors a touch.

    Tweaking the colors may make it more true-to-life, but what is truth? The camera does its thing and we do ours in CS. I like it this way.;)

    I like it this way, too.

    This is definitely a Judy photo. Sweet, amazing light.

    Unfortunately, I'm not so familiar with the light in Florida. If it looked like this, I wouldn't change it. The BG looks a bit noisy on my monitor.

    Artie thanks for time and suggestions. I edited this in the evening and was not aware of the magenta cast. I appreciate the tips. Thanks !!

    This is one of those images that has such a real life feel......as if I could reach out, touch, and feel the feathers. I sometimes struggle with the intense colors when it's early or late in the day......I usually keep them as is.....and feel blessed that I had such good light.
