BTW, also would like to show before and after. I didn't spend enough time to fix the picture (very busy in my work and kids).


As always, all C&C are welcome.

Lovely image and an impressive processing! Pity about the cut toes.

[Waqar Amin]

Thanks Ofer, there were around 9 photographers there and all got similar problem no toes or feet.
And later it start raining and since then i didn't got change to go back, hopefully will try to get full focused improved shot.

Beautiful image the exposure is good and the colours here have come out extremely well

[Thanaboon Jearkjirm]

Look very sharp and what an amazing color you have here, very well done with the post process too. The feet was already mention, hope you get what you want next time. Even though I didn't get a chance to photograph this bird when it migrated here, but I heart it was quite a celebrity too.
