16 Feb 24 Comment Nice animal portrait. You restored tones successfully. Image is sharp. I agree with Mohanan, that it's no need for bluring the grass. You could just desaturate the original green.

16 Feb 24 Comment Nice scene with calm water. Your color and tone processing is really perfect. Only I think, that scene is a little bit tight. I prefer landscape orientation for landscapes. If you could leave more space on the left of boat, it would be the best. Feb 24th
16 Feb 24 Comment Walter, nice composition of the bird over the water.
There were two problems at the time of capturing, but the reason is the same. Too long shutter. Perhaps you wanted to capture motion.
Overexposure of lower part of the bird is the first result of long exposure. Maybe you can solve this from RAW file. Just burning JPG is not enough. You should use 1/250 or 1/320s still capturing some motion.
The second problem is unsharp image. Using long shutter must be captured with perfect panning. In that case just background and wings would be blurred, but body sharp.
Your panning was not perfect. So you can try with Topaz Sharpen AI. Don's photo seems to be sharp, but it is oversharpened (many pixels everywhere).
I use both: Topaz Denoise AI and Sharpen AI. In Denoise my testing has given the best results in Clear mode, leaving default settings. After that I use Sharpen AI. By my experience it has the best motion blur correction. But be careful. It's not always perfect. It doesn't always determine the whole object to sharpen. So I suggest first, that you select zoom to fit. Then you check Select on and Refine. You add missing parts of object. After that you give Update and save.
Best wishes!

16 Feb 24 Comment I agree to increase contrast of the whole photo.

The bird seems to be too much near the edge. I would leave wider angel like on the original, but place the bird more to the middle.

16 Feb 24 Comment Perfect exposure! Night images of lights are often overexposed, while yours are not. Also good processing. Feb 23rd
16 Feb 24 Comment I agree. that the grass is too green and fluorescent. It seems, that also skin has a little bit green tone.

Brown trail will not be hard to remove.

16 Feb 24 Reply The trouble is, that mother was sleeping and her eye is closed. I will try to sharpen with Topaz sharpen AI. Feb 23rd
