Interesting bird and colour, but I do feel it is slightly too over sharpened.
Post Production: It’s ALL about what you do with the tools and not, which brand of tool you use.
Agree on the bird being oversharpened, it's the first thing I noticed. Perch is also a bit overwhelming. Nice exposure and neat BG.
I agree with the above. I also think the colour temp could be raised, and the overall colours seem muted. Perhaps more saturation would be good here (careful not to overdo it). I like the pose with a perfect look-back HA.
Thanks for the suggestions...it seems I need to learn more about getting my images right for the web. They don't look near as good as the TIFF file before resizing and converting to JPEG. I'm sure there are some techniques I need to learn here. Thanks again for looking.
Repost with less sharpening and slight boost in saturation
the repost looks better .....nice species and BG
