Ruffled Feathers

Jim,

Great composition and pose, and great moment captured.  I like the mouth open and the very nice OOF background.

The colors on the bird seem just slightly muted, and I believe there are some sharpening halos around certain edges.  Perhaps a touch more contrast might make it pop a bit more, and a bit less sharpening, or more noise control, would help those halos.

Other than those minor nitpicks however, it is a terrific image!  Well done.

Best regards,

Dennis

Thanks Dennis. I'll play with it a little more.
