This a re-post from the ETL forum OP earlier this year. I finally got around to adding some canvass as suggested and was looking for feedback on the overall image and comp. The HA is a touch off as he was looking for for his next catch.

Thanks for looking.............

Amazing photo, looks like a painting, perhaps a little tight in the frame.

Hi Jay, A nice stately pose along with pleasing habitat and nice green reflections. The whites look too gray and the head angle is way less than ideal. Good to see you posting here and thanks a ton for your membership support.

Hi Art, Always great to get your feedback. I'm working on the whites.......................re-post coming (my first whack at it). Agree on HA. You are welcome on the membership support, and, considering the benefits I'm getting from this and specially the Macro forum, it has been well worth it.

Stuart, In CS5 I selected a crop inside the borders of the image, then dragged it beyond the borders to the size I wanted. Then, a matter of cloning the perimeter colors into the new canvass...........there may be better ways!

The whites are whiter and thanks for your kind BPN words :)
