I have been back to the same location 4 times now and it just keeps getting better, I do however see a little something in just about every shot that I would like to change , like this one I think would look better with a little sun on the snow trail. This is a slight crop , about 80% of original.
I cloned out a couple of corn stalks from the background and ran nik 25/25 on the bird in a separate layer. smart sharpen on the bird only.
