Perhaps, you wanted the "dark" effect, but wonder if a little brightening of the shadows might be better? Lee

The edit is much better

 

[DarkShadow]

Agree Nice job On the Edit. Yes it is better. I should have played with it a bit in post but got a little lazy.

Agreed, brighter is better :thumbup:

Hence the name 'DarkShadow' It does seem a little dark. Could be a monitor calibration issue.

I was using my kids computer for the bigger screen that's not calibrated and everything seems really bright and the color looks somewhat washed out. Should have used my mac that always looks better even before calibrating the display.

There was a Canadian Goose followed me everywhere I went. I was going shoot him but then realized He or She was injured where the beak-mouth was crooked like it may have been hit by a car. I felt real bad for it and I almost packed him in the car to a vet trip but thought better off it as long it's eating it should be fine.

Putting a goose in your car would have led to major consequences! Lee

A serious car accident from being attacked and goose pop all over the car seats.

Nice close profile shot and good strong colours. It did need a bit of brightness, but one heck of a close shot. Nice shooting.

All the best.
