    Nice one Jeroen! I really like the interaction, but I really wish for a lower shooting angle. Otherwise great shot!

    Amazing birds. I love the interaction. I agree about the shooting angle, but realize that is not always in your control.

    Lovely. You might try selecting the forehead and the top of the face of the bird on our left with a Quick Mask and lightening it a bit by pulling the curve up a bit (Cntrl M for a Curves adjustment on a layer).
