Just off fishing

[Tigger]

I'm not really kitted out for bird photos ( yet ) but spotted this guy doing some fishing in a lake - I did hang around for a while but got feed up waiting for him to catch something

Its a large crop as this is about 30% of the original but I think its held up

I actually like that against the rippled water.

Seems to be a bit over processed IMO, but with that said, nice detail on the bird Ian

Re: Just off fishing

You have some super detail in the bird but followings Toms comment it looks like the whole image has been sharpened. I always sharpen on a duplicate layer and then mask out everything apart from the subject

Yes, the background is a bit overpowering - love the bird, though

Re: Just off fishing

Agree with what's already been said but still a good capture.
