21 Aug 24 Comment I agree, a Black Crowned Night Heron. Aug 16th
21 Aug 24 Comment Great shot, Leslie. I also have only seen one of these, a male in Saskatchewan. Very sharp, great color, puts him in his habitat. As Ron says, you might do something with that twig, but it probably isn't easy. Aug 16th
21 Aug 24 Comment Tells a nature story, it's interesting that baby birds can grow as big as their parents and still act like babies, as Leslie points out. Aug 16th
21 Aug 24 Comment Great shot, lovely bird. It's not easy to get the bird completely sharp in this situation, the important thing is that the eye is sharp. I agree that I'd like to see the band to complete the story. Aug 16th
21 Aug 24 Comment An interesting find. I agree about sharpening and toning. You might be able to use generative expand to fix the clipped tail. Aug 16th
21 Aug 24 Comment Great action shot Tom. I wouldn't do anything except removing the white spots as already pointed out. Aug 16th
21 Aug 24 Reply Thanks Leslie. Aug 16th

44 Aug 24 Comment Excellent detail and texture in the walls and floor. The grunge treatment suits this type of scene very well. I think that the bright areas outside may have been overexposed on even the darkest bracket and then darkened too much in either LRC or ACR, in my experience this can cause such areas to go gray. As Lisa said, you need a darker bracket to handle this (or some photoshop replacement). Aug 19th
44 Aug 24 Comment I didn't know you could do auto bracketing from a drone camera. This certainly enabled you to get into a unique location for architectural shooting. Well processed, you made sure that all verticals and horizontals are true to the edges of the image. And you captured the Caesar's casino across the river in Windsor, Ontario. Aug 19th
44 Aug 24 Comment I agree, the scene does slope slightly down toward the left. Otherwise well done, the crystal ball adds interest to the scene. I guess you carry it around to add into various scenes wherever you travel right? Aug 19th
44 Aug 24 Comment It's unfortunate that this location is no longer publicly accessible, looks like a spot that one could spend some good time at. I might lighten the scene a little bit but otherwise cannot see anything I might improve. Aug 19th
44 Aug 24 Comment Your image evokes the feeling of being buried deep in the forest for many years away from all civilization. It's sharp enough for me in this situation (though use of the Orton effect here might enhance the feeling of isolation). Aug 19th
44 Aug 24 Comment Well done, Brad, your HDR treatment and use of Color Efex brought out all he detail and color in this scene. I might take out the pot on the bottom left edge, as well as the white speck in the corner, these draw my eye a bit. Aug 19th
