Very nice image Brian, The pose is very good with one foot still off ground, wings spread and a slight tilt of the body.I guess the image is a tad under making it a bit dull. You may wish to adjust the highlights.
Very cool image, Brian.:D. Lovely pose and excellent focus. Looks a bit dull so did a white point adjustment under levels. The black at the top bothered me a little so I had a play and patched it out, selected and blurred out the BG and did a colour correction as it looked a bit warm to me. Then burnt in the corners a little to focus in on the main player. I'd love the opportunity to photograph these penguins. Look forward to more of yours.
Great pose and details. It does look better without the dark band at the top but I like the colors in the original better. In the repost the slight yellow tones are lost.
The repost is too high key for this photograph to me I like the original even the bg gives it a sense of space and 3d the repost looks like a sheet was set up
Great image as presented. I fall in the middle between the original and the repost. I think the original has too much of a pinkish red cast that doesn't really say "sweet light" to me, but I like the top of the image for some depth and environment instead of the plain white BG of the repost.
Happy Feet!
