Green Winged Teal Duck - Sandy Ridge Reservation

[Mark Perry]

I stopped by Sandy Ridge Reservation (Cleveland Ohio area) this morning (with two shooting buddies) and capture this good looking green winged teal.

Hi Mark, Beautiful colours in this image...in both the BG and the bird. It seems a bit dark on my monitor.

Cheers!

very beautiful, lots of detail and pano crop works too. Only wish if the bird was not moving slightly away from you.

Hi Mark, hope you don't mind this repost with the following changes:

Cropped to a more standard horizontal as I couldn't see the justification for the pano, levels, S/H, contrast.

Would love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks to all for your replies.

Thanks Ofer.

I generally prefer to give some space to the bird in the direction they are moving but your re-crop is OK too.


The levels are fine on my calibrated iMac. There must be a monitor to monitor variation.
