I recently visited Slimbridge for the first time. It wasn't a very good day weather-wise but I was very impressed with the WWT and the site in general. It reminded me that I'd taken a few shots of Greylags on Texel last year that I'd not done anything with.

20D
400mm DO IS + 1.4x
ISO200
F11.0
1/200th

Cropped slightly, run through Lightroom 4.1 Beta, resized in elements 4.0 for the web.

Rob,

The problem with this image is that it doesn't show at the moment :wink:

Ah now it does :biggrin:

Seems to be showing now.

A lovely portrait with a great head turn. The shot looks a bit 'pink' overall, and I think it's a little on the bright side. I think I'd play around with the colour balance/colour temp and also tweak levels and curves, because I think this is a fine shot that just requires a bit of tweaking to show it off at its best.

Agree with michaels comments on this one a bit of tweaking and it will be a belter :toast:
