I like the wing position and details. I wish the sun would have been behind you and the angle were lower. I would give it a bit more room left and right and crop a bit off the top.
Actually the attraction of this site is that the water changes to a variety of colors depending upon the cloud cover and each visit a different look can be had. Mornings can be good, but afternoons when the birds are front lite is best IMO.
Dan,
Nice capture with the wing flap. I would have like to see a bit more room on the left and right but many people like this type of crop too; mileage varies.
For what it's worth, here's what I started with. I'm pretty pleased with the improvements. This is definitely the biggest cleanup job I've yet attempted.
The repost looks so much better! The extra room on each side looks good. The whites were burned in the original image, but skillful PS work has made a big improvement. You did such a good job on the water that it is hard to believe the original image! Well done.
