    Used a cross hatch filter over the kestrel and bumped the saturation. Thought I would try something a little different. Thanks for looking.

    Hey, Dan, I like the high key look and simplicity. The cross hatch worked well on the image. I'd like to see a little more of the eye revealed. Nice work:)

    Beautiful colors and detail in the wings, tail. Another vote for more eye detail. A punchy HK image, Dan!

    Dan, I also like the HK look and the simplicity. The Kestrel is a beautiful bird and you have emphasized the wonderful colors and markings.

    Dan, You gotta love that fanned tail and the light on it. Just beautiful! I like the high key very much and think that the filter looks good, not overpowering. Another vote for more detail in the eye. Nicely done and welcome to OOTB.:):)
