    Center wgt meter
    ISO 320
    shutter 1/1000
    Morning light
    about 1/3 crop
    Processed NX2

    Should the background be desaturated more and blurred more.?
    Crop different? Should there be more on the bottom?
    I notice before saving for the web there is better detail in the face and less washout. Suggestions to limit that effect?
    Thanks Ray:)

    Hi - Love the action/ Interaction.
    Little more space at the bottom for the virtual feet - feels a little tight. Would try to add a little life to the eyes on both birds - darken one and lighten the other.
    I am happy with the BG as it is - shows the habitat and the colours work well. Some of your whites are getting up there but nothing over.
    In the educational resources forum you will find info about saving for the web - hard to comment on the loss of detail and washed out commente without knowing your workflow.

    Keep em coming :)
