This is soft and pretty, Bob. The texture suits the tern nicely. I think the branch he's on might be a little overwhelming. Perhaps a crop to eliminate part of the branch and a bit added to the top? Also, I'd mask that eye back in.
Bob, I like the foggy loook to this as well. Beautiful texturing. I think maybe trying to bring just a bit more life to the eye would work. I like the framing. Maureen makes a good point regarding the perch size but I think because it's wings are open it appears much larger and the size of the perch doesn't bother me that much. I might tone down some of the brighter whites on the bird. Nice work!
Bob, I like the texture you chose...I might be tempted to bring back a little contrast or color pop to the limb, and I agree with Denise about toning down the whites a bit. If it were mine, I'd also trim a bit from the left and add a bit to the top...love the gradient of the background. I really enjoy viewing your work!
Hi Bob, I agree with comments above, very nice texture and colors to the image. Mainly for me a bit of contrast and toning down the brights. Very nice.
