At the everglades. D2H w 600/4. f4@1/200 sec, iso 320, EC -1.
Thanks for looking, Rick

Great comp here and pose. I feel that the yellows are blown here. Also see some bg noise. Good one well done

I like the colours against the dark BG, and good pose by the gallinule. A few subtle improvements would put this a notch higher: Cropping from above to eliminate the brighter distractions at top (and also improve comp), removing the green leaf poking in at right, and toning down the brighter parts of the legs. Overall I like the mood and lighting, very well done.

Thanks,
I cloned out the leaf and cropped the top.

Crop is a good improvement on a nice pic.
