Digging around in my Barny files and came across this image.. :smile:

From a shot point of view Anthony it's a cracker for sure :wavey:

But I think it needs a little change in the processing as it's a bit muddy and flat (at least on my monitor).

Perhaps a small levels adjustment and an increase saturation with give it the punch it deserves.

Lovely, very intent 'look' on its face (not that it ever changes!) - super shot :wavey:

Agree with Andy, a super shot and I think it would benefit from some extra work in processing it. Otherwise really very nice indeed.

Hello Anthony.

Its a cracking image, and with a bit more processing I think it will just jump out and become a stunner.

Like the low glide and wing position in this shot :smile:

A nice image but I agree with the others it needs a little bit more PP to really make it stand out :smile:

Very nice, a classic shot. Well seen, anticipated and taken.

Super shot but it looked half a stop under to me. If this was captured in raw, then it really is just a matter of upping it. Good job :toast:
