It was so much fun climbing along the rocks in flips toget this shot
HA afforded catchlight so I like
I also like the rocks and hope you do too!

Richard I like the scene very much, I may be tempted to lower the brightness on the head of the bird and consider lowering the intensity of the highlights.
I am a little uneasy about the rocks and water, they look a bit more than out of focus - have you blurred them or done something to the background?? If not I apologise - maybe I am too suspicious![]()
Sharp bird, nice catchlight and I like the rocky environs. But the BG looks kinda funky and noisy for some reason - something doesn't feel right here. Maybe some selective NR on the BG would help. TFS!
You are right; I ran a light Topaz NR generally, my bad
So now selective NR to BG and funkiness which was noise
Slight burn 4% normal to lower HL on head
S&H , H 25 to reduce general HL's
burn bright spots, and removed some speculars
I think so much better
Your repost is better. Still a nice habitat image.
