an exquisite bird shot. the background is also a great match in colours
Welcome to EPZ. She is making a nice job of the nest, Cyril. You have good detail, colour and exposure, but the background lets the image down a bit, and I think it could be a bit sharper. I have done a modification where I cropped square, eliminating a lot of the background on the right. I reduced the highlights, cloned out a bit of debris under the bird's chin, adjusted levels slightly, selectively sharpened the beak and eye, sharpened the overall focus to bring more detail on the feathers, then softened the background because there was a bit of noise there.
Pamela.
