Hi Jon ... nice behavior shot and I do specially like the " pulling" pose -
Not too fuzzed about the overall darkness ... way too dark for my taste .
Comp does look good and I do kind of like the rusty wire
This time you went the other way round on the color front ... cheeks are kind of yellow , matter of taste . Why not trying to get them neutral ???
Ok Jon ...
here is a vision of what I think does look better .
Specially the yellow cast .... is gone , and you have now what cheeks instead of yellow .
Lifted the darker parts .... without blowing the wool .
Cheers Andreas
Ups ... have forgotten to turn of the clipping indicaTOR BEFORE SAVING THE FILE
Hey Jon .. I am wondering why you are not seeing or controlling the potential casts in your images ..... it is so easy !!!! Takes ten seconds to hover with the eyedropper over key areas .
Jonathan lovely capture and I do like the pulling action. Adds so much to the image and the barb wire works well here. I do think the 2nd version is better. TFS
Yes i think the second one is better .Usually don't like Barb of which this country has hundreds of thousands of miles but the age and the rust helps here,
I like the behavioural aspect you captured in this frame. Well composed, good pose from the bird and I agree with Ian, the rusty barbed wire adds to the image
Great tit (Parus major)
..better - thanks.
