Yes, the greens are glowing quite a bit. Otherwise, sweet close up, and one of those instances where the dirty bill looks good and lets us know what...

A subtle brushing with the sponge tool would do well for these grasses indeed. I love the interaction, composition, and eye-level perspective.

Fantastic flight pose you got on this oystercatcher! Super details on the feathers. Some of the whites are just at the limit of being greyed out,...

Hi Will, greeting from SA currently… Thanks for the kind words and nice to see you posting again. Chieftain OMG, next it will be the Scout Cars...

Very nice Steve. Perfect detail on the bird and a lovely POV. The raised leg adds. Lovely colours throughout. It was Chieftain tanks when I done...

Very nice Jon. What a great looking bird and you captured it well. Nice detail, I don't mind the HA. The BG shows the bird real well. Lovely detail...

Looking good Andreas. Great alert pose and I really like the BG. As Dan said, a wee bit from the bottom would enhance this image. Very well...

I agree with Jon and Andreas. I do like the image, the dark perch against the colours on the bird look real good. Nice pose and HA. Will

Well done in getting close to this beautiful bird Andreas. The greens are a matter of taste, on this occasion I agree with Jon, that they are a wee...

Thanks for that guys. Yes, the greens, I suppose its a matter of taste. I was looking at Andreas's post, and thought the BG looked too green on my...

THX Dan .... good call about the FG .

Hi Will super shot of the Razorbills ... well captured behavior , stunning . Well controlled tones in HL and SH ... Compo is good , but I would...

Oh well Jon ... I have to agree the BG greens are a bit of an overkill :bg3: , should have settled the image for a moment before finishing it . My...

Morning Andreas, Re. limbs, only mentioned that for interest' sake, this is how the species walk so nothing you could do about it. Been busy...

I misled you Steve, I didn't mean soft/OOF I meant slightly lacking in contrast perhaps

Glad to see you back Will!! Super shot, good low angle, I like the background with the area of sky, I am not the best at presenting greens but they...

Paul, the textures in the bird appear a little odd, maybe a little too much denoise or "Effects", some of the wing coverts and parts of the tail look...

Hi Andreas, Godwit looks good in terms of colours, tones and detail - especially in the bill cavity! The green grass is a bit overwhelming for my...

THX Gabriela ... glad you like it . Funny that you mentioned the limbs , I would have never thought about it .... as they are as they are !!! OK I...

Hi Paul ... thes object is nicely presented on the log and in the open , well done in achieving this . Personally I think there is too much of...

Mean and lean, those girls... What lovely sighting, Steve. You say there were thirteen altogether? Cubs too? Pretty amazing:S3: I suppose you had...

As per previous, it just looks wrong you need to skip these two sliders. Jon are you viewing at 100% actual size in Ps and not in the...

Steve I think I was just a little too heavy handed in the saturaion/vibrance - your looks better but the butterfly looks slightly hazy to me, but the...

Thanks everyone, glad yuo liked it, I appreciate the repost. Regards brushing Steve I did none at all background is wisywig as it were.

Hello Jon, I've just come back from Kruger :t3 Had wonderful sightings but from the photography point of view rather poor, very tall grass after...

I'll check, thank you. Don't think I'll ever lose an image again. After some 'culling' I will copy everything on the new hard drive and then work of...
