A lovely image, i would suggest just a little more contrast though.:)

I like the way you have got in close to this magnificent animal so we get to enjoy those beautiful eyes. I don't know whether it is the human shaped eyes or the furrowed brow that makes this bird look like it is pondering a problem. Either way it grabs me emotionally, nice work. CC

Meg - thanks for your coments and advice.

I have revisted the photo and tried to digitally enhance it with more contrast etc. (I posted original photo as it was produced by camera with only cropping carried out and maybe I was a bit too hasty in uploading the photo). Here is the revised photo wich I think may be better!

Hi Jeff,
I don't know if you work with Photoshop, I just quickly ran your image through CS2 and by using shadow/highlights, contrast/brightnes and then just a touch of sharpening this is what I came up with.

Hope you don't mind.
Meg.

Hi Meg - Thanks for your image which is good. I use Roxio's software and the sharpening tool can be a little bit severe, so I use it with care. I don't think Roxio's version is as good as PS and I will think about upgrading. - Regards Jeff :)
