Thanks very much for the suggestions. Here's a color version. I'm working on a black and white, starting from scratch and incorporating your suggestions. |

I agree with the comments. It's a serene shot. Since it's a sunset shot, I would have tried warming the image up a bit and lightening the shadows on the rocks. Also, did you consider black and white on this one, going for more contrast and drama? This might be a good alternate take on a fine shot. |

Very nice image of a subject that is hard to beat! If you are interested in over-processing, look at the attached image. Crop out most of the grass around the subjects, lower the highlights, bring up the shadows, set the white and black points to your taste. If using Lightroom, selectively increase the exposure, saturation and sharpness only on the cats, using the adjustment brush. |

Wow, I like the way you have made the bird stand out in the image by brightening the shadows. I might have cropped a little more off the top and added a bit of dark vignette. But the image is great as-is. |

Jason, I can tell you are a creative guy. The title made me think of a group of crows being called a "murder". So the two crows are waiting for the rest of the murder to arrive. Larry's crop definitely strengthens the composition, making the crows larger and bringing them more into the frame (rule of thirds). I like the way all the lines lead to the subject (crows). This is a good one to print, hang on the wall in a black frame. You can enjoy explaining to everyone when they ask, "Hey, what's that all about?" |

I really like Mark's crop on this one. You might try using the LR angle tool to level the bridge and then crop it out. Just be careful that the water does not appear to run uphill (or you could tell everyone that's one of the cool things about Ouzel Creek). I would use the adjustment brush to lighten up the shadows, especially under the bridge and on the large rocks in the foreground. There is probably some detail that you could recover. |

Well, that's a wonderful shot. I must admit that I would have shot from the bank and fixed it up in Lightroom, with much less successful results. Thanks for the inspiration to get more involved in the field and "get it right in camera". |
