Cream and peaches texture and BG. Great detail all over and sweet EXP, even for the slightly off light angle. It may be an optical illusion, but I feel it's slanted to the right.
Angle, details and eye contact look good. The light looks a bit harsh and there seems to be a color cast. The eye looks a bit washed out, maybe you could darken the pupil.
The techs look good for the light you had, but do wish the light angle was coming from directly behind you. Fill-flash may have helped somewhat in filling the shadows had you used that. I like the simple comp. Never realized how small and thin these guys' bills are!
very nice shot Alexander,sharp,nice light,not trying to be clever,but this is a LITTLE RINGED PLOVER,I am watching a pair now,who lost there first clutch,dew to being washed out.their second clutch is ready to hatch anyday now.nice shot.thanks.
Thanx for the right englisch name;)Originally Posted by christopher galeski
what a beautiful bird this is. and a lovely capture too.
i was just referring my images and found some images of the same species come in winter here in india
From the images i just refere my own and some on net i found that in your image there is a bit of magenta tint which you can easily remove or reduce .
Dont know if the tonal value of this species is little different at your place.
Very nice image indeed. Details are fantastic. Not sure if there is a slight pink cast. Despite the warm lights it is still over the normal I guess. Fixable. I like it.
