The subject of my last post some 10 days ago. The reason for the repost is that I have followed the advice I was given, especially by Rene, Dawn, John and Eric. My thanks to you guys, and to everyone else who commented last time.

I thought I had tweaked it as much as I could last time - I'm still learning, so thanks again for the advice.

David

Alterations: Levels tweaked, contrast increased, unsharp mask. :toast:

I think it looks much more vibrant then the first one, a little bit more room on the right...thats all!
Well done

David, this is a big improvement on your previous version. Certainly a bogey bird for me. :smile:

That looks great. Nice details and that wonderful eye really stands out! Really wish I could get this close to one of these birds!!

Very nice David and the reprocessing has brought it out wonderfully. I'm yet to even see one of these :smile:
