    I took this picture in Ding Darling back in 2007. I cropped the picture, added +4 Hue/Sat, removed a few dark spots in the water and used linear contrast in curves and smart sharpen one pass. All comments are welcomed.

    thanks,

    Beautifully sharp focus where it counts, and nice exposure. If it were mine, I would crop some off the top of the frame, and run some noise reduction on the BKGR. Also maybe lighten the legs and feet of the subject. Nice shot!

    Great focus on the face in good breading colors. The merging behind is unfortunate. Agree on running noise red on the BG. EXP is right on.

    Yep, great exposure, sharp on face, maybe a little off top and add some to left. NR on background. Lovely shot of these in flight.
    Cheers

    Nice pose and SH, good advice given above. The two OOF birds don't add much to this photo, I would clone them out.

    Your spoonbill is so much classier in its pink plumage than our white on! An excellent shot. Concur maybe cloning out the two OOF BG birds.
