Re: Red Wattle Bird
Gorgeous!
Is there any scope for reducing the glare on the wattle under the bird's neck perhaps?

Trev I would have liked to have dulled down that blown out area, but sadly my PP skills are lacking!

Re: Red Wattle Bird
Took a second glance to recognize the shape of the bird, nice effort.

Re: Red Wattle Bird
Good portrait of the wattle bird, Bear, that shows it in a typical "pose". Aside from the over-exposed highlights, I think this photograph might work better in a longer format. If you cropped off some of the right hand side (say. half between the bird's head and the rh border) it would complement the longer shape of the bird. JMHO.
