An interesting and different waxwing shot here Kim. The tail is a little close to the edge of the pic but it is hard to critique it fully without a larger version :wink:

A bit dark on my display but different.

It looks a bit dark to me too, but that is an easily sorted problem.

Hi Kim, just check your settings for when you convert to web, as the image as presented has an untagged profile and looks a little warm, projecting a bit more red/magenta in the sky. Once the image is sRGB it looks a lot better, plus, if you can, open up the darker shadow areas. Agree that it does need a bit more at the foot of the image, just a wee but tight. :wink:
