I had a small led light I put behind the bottles. First attempt, if I do it again I may try something different |

I think that this tells a great story! The old building with bright new mural. I love that you have equipment on the mural on the right - I wonder if they were cleaning or still working on the mural. And I too love that you captured the bird. |

Thank you so much for the feedback! I agree, it does look better with a darker background. |

You always have the most interesting subjects. I like what you did with it and have no immediate thoughts. How did you remove all the green vines?
However, I'm taking a photoshop class so may try to come with something. |

I love the colors in this shot! I'd never guess that this was your first attempt. |

This is such a great composition! How cool that you are able to get the reflection in the pool of water. |

I love this photo! I think that your editing is spot on. To my untrained eye I feel like the horizon line if off just a bit. |

Yes, I tighter crop would have worked. I use Topaz Photo AI - always on auto. I can't remember if I used it on this photo or not. |

Welcome to the group!
This is such a beautiful bird. I love the detail you were able to capture. I am going to enjoy having you in the group as I will get to see new birds.
Also, I had/have a P900 - but my photos NEVER turned out this sharp. |

I live in Norfolk, VA. It is about a two hour drive to ARNWR. My daughter loves wildlife photography so we have been there quite often. |

I have never been to either Lake Mattamuskeet or Washington NC so you will have to let me know what you see!
I don't know if you've been to ARNWR before, but the owls are often found on Sawyer Lake Road.
Pocosin Lakes NWF is near Columbia - and you want to go to the Pungo Unit.
Pungo Unit Of Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge

I feel like the bears the seem to be more active after rain. But I've not ever taken notes...
Let me know how you make out! |

Welcome to the group!
This is a beautiful shot! I loved that you captured their necks curving and facing each other. With the grass in in front of them it is like you interrupted a private moment. |

Thank you for the feedback and taking the time to edit the photo. I definitely need to up my post-processing game. Did you use photoshop or lightroom to edit it? |

Interestingly, I prefer your original crop. I think it is a more appealing image over all. I feel like I am there with the bird in a meadow.
The close crop - I find the lower flower distracting and just over all not as interesting. I guess if I was googling red-winged blackbird I would like the close cropped image more. |

I 100% agree with the rule, and that this was the perfect time to break it - and you got his face in profile. It is neat to see his tail fanned out, and I also enjoy the wildflower. I am curious if the you got the background that blurred out of the camera of if that is some fancy editing?
Beautiful image! |

Great shot! And lucky - I am good at scaring of herons but they never come back to me. I love all the color in the water. |

This is such a great shot! I love the two birds together, one in focus and one not. Great detail in his face! |
