15 Sep 24 Comment I think your woodstork image is excellent. Your flash system must be extremely powerful!.
I think eventually any suggestions merely reflect personal taste rather than improvement. I took the image into PS-CC and swizzled a few settings which only reflect my taste. I cut the exposure 0.15 EVs, increased the contrast +40, and cut back the highlights back by -100. Before editing, the PS luminance alert lit up on the bird's left shoulder. I got an image I liked slightly more. But that's just taste.

15 Sep 24 Comment Kathy, I love how you retained all the subtelty in the colors of feathers. Looks perfectly natural. And perfect composition. Sep 5th
15 Sep 24 Comment Pei-Fan. Absolutely perfect as is. Even the background is perfect! Sep 5th
15 Sep 24 Comment Sarita, This is a perfect capture - a perfect pose. You even got a dragonfly above the head of the heron! Wonderful shot. At risk of sounding critical, I put your image into Adobe PS-RAW and tried a few edits. I don't know this is any better, just different. I took highlights down 60, black down 50, texture up 30, clarity up 10, and dehaze up 15. Then re-cropped to portrait shape. It's a possibility. Sep 5th
