Razorbill portrait (Last one)

I like portrait shots although i know there not to everyones taste.
Its the level of detail you can see which i like the most.
I really like the background colour on this one too, and would like peoples opinons to . C&C welcome as always.

Hi Mark
Nice detail and I reckon it could stand a landscape crop concentrating on the head a tad more.
Cheers

Great shot Mark I like the background colours and detail, a little more room above would work well
Bronia

The exposure is spot on. Plenty of detail which is no mean feat with these birds.

Excellent shot Mark.

I like the darker background and the detail in the head of the bird.

Ian

I think you have captured this very well indeed and the exposure is spot on. I would however, adjust the levels slightly just to make the bird 'pop' a little against that BG to give it a tad more definition. Not much at all but i think it might help.

Brett

It does overblend a tad, nice image this one though.

Hi mark ,
a tap on gamma to 0.9 and a curves to +6 does it for me .
As the bird is leaning into the frame a tadge off the right and more canvas left.?
exp ,bg and detail spot on.

Excellent shot Mark.

Nits already covered.

Shaun

Nits covered but a lovely portrait. Well exposed and a nice clean background.

Looks good to me, but just you wait
Great to see the eye so clearly and with a catchlight too.
