4 Jun 23 Comment Such a tranquil scene. This is one of those images that one can spend hours with various plug-in filters creating magical effects. I could see adding Sun Rays to highlight the the bright areas. Jun 22nd
4 Jun 23 Comment You bird images are always a source of amazement. You know I can't pass up the opportunity to put my personal spin of this subject. I saw the left side beyond the pipe as a distraction along with the foreground grasses out of focus. I did two things to improve the image. First, I cropped it and also applied the Adobe Raw Filter Auto setting plus a slight vignette. Jun 22nd
4 Jun 23 Comment I like your composition and subject. I agree with others comments, however one thing just popped out and bothered me was the woman's bag is the brightest thing in the scene and, in my opinion, draws my eye away from the subject.

4 Jun 23 Comment A very peaceful scene. You made the best of the existing conditions. This is one of those images where one questions the placement oof the horizon line. Personally, I would crop the top and bottom. Interestingly, I opened the image in Photoshop Raw Filter and set the White and Black points. This is done by holding down the shift key and clicking on the White and Black points. There's just a subtle difference. Jun 22nd
4 Jun 23 Reply Sorry, I misinterpreted your comment about an organized shoot and the term sharing prey. Jun 22nd
4 Jun 23 Comment A great shot with great composition and color. You mentioned that this was taken on an organized photo shoot and the birds were sharing prey. I don't want to create a stir, but would this go against PSA ethics on feeding captive birds. Before I would pass judgement I would want a review by someone in the Nature Division

4 Jun 23 Comment Overall the image is tack sharp and well composed. You nailed the basics such as exposure, color balance and lighting. I'm not an expert on nature so I can't question the flower. Unfortunately because of the PSA nature rules you cannot tamper with bright areas in the background. One last thought is that the subject is not involved in any activity, a minor issue but the judge's look for something that attracts their attention. Jun 22nd
4 Jun 23 Reply According to Adobe the present resolution is 1024x1024 pixels. I've seen tutorials where an Action was created to create a 1024x1024 selection and then use Generative Fill in sequences Jun 10th
