nice take off pose with good details of the wing's underparts.
i however notice kind of yellow cast on the bird (well, am unsure if its my monitor though).
Very nice work, Thomas. I like the pose and action that you captured. I think this could improve if you were to take a little off the back of the frame, and add a bit of canvas in front and on top. There is also a very noticable Shadow/Highlight halo around the bird and tree. Looks much better after you re-worked the yellows.
Big welcome to BPN, hope to make your time here a great learning experience.
Great pose, but the image suffers from poor post-processing. There's a huge halo around the subject and tree, the whites are strange and the blue lore oversaturated.
Better to start from scratch.
Excellent critiques by all above. Way to go gang! Later and love, artie
