Hi Bill, I like your choice of filters and your angle to the subject. Lighting is even and pleasing along with the color. I would have preferred a bit more room to the rear of the subject.
Thanks Dave. Note to self: quit leaving too little room to the rear of a subject! regards~Bill
Bill, You guys already covered the rear -But man I just love this one!! Details and pose are terrific-This young one is really concentrating!! Perfect amount of effect IMO!!
Yeah, super cool Bill. Love the pose and earthy tones around. :)
Denise: I'm glad you liked it. Indeed, the little guy was concentrating deeply on finding a small morsel in the mud. So much so, he didn't even notice me! regards~Bill
Bill, I love the detail and the reduced color range. Makes for a nice effect! It has a pen and ink feel to it.

Really nice use of texture here, Bill. I could also stand a little more room at the back of the bird but it's not bad as is. The fur is remarkable - you can almost reach out and touch it.
William - really nice image. I like the Topaz treatment here - it's just right:)
