Canada Goose

Really nice fall image!
I'd suggest darkening the whole thing, starightening the goose, and lowering him/her in the frame.
The whites on the tail are a little hot, but not too bothersome.

Ron,

I'd suggest some clockwise rotation for the image, lining up the catchlight in the bird to the corresponding catchlight in the bird's reflection should give it the proper rotation. I loike the pose of the goose, the eye contact it is giving you and the colors of the water and vegetation. It does appear that some whites on the goose are blown in the lower neck and rump, you may be able to reduce those in post processing. I would also lower the exposure some on the image overall.

Ron, I like the habitat and the goose. This image needs a lot of CW rotation. Mia's method for getting this image straight is a great one. I also agree in bringing down the brightest whites and the overall brightness. This is an image worth working on IMO.

Thanks everyone for all your comments and help. I do like this picture so I will try to improve on it as you have suggested. I'm still very slow and clumsy in PS, this will give me more practice. It really does help me grow when you give me some of your time to comment and give me ideas on how to improve the image.
