Great capture Ginger.

Thanks, Dick!

Thanks so much!

I didn't know if it was too saturated. I have a tendency to saturate down to nothing.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Is the saturation OK, or is it too much?

I didn't do that much, what I did I reversed.

I did LAB steep things, but only very little........

I am confused now that I am doing birds again.

I do not say to much about the photos because of my monitor and aol the color sometimes is not right ,but the V does have too much saturation and the exposer needs a little help --capture very good :thumb Harry can tell you better than I G

More shadow detail.........curves.

Less saturation on the orange and green.

Local contrast enhancement.

Not bad Ginger. I still don't have any good ones of these yet.
I would have titled it differently though.

Something like

"Whada ya think of your Easter Bunny Now!"


:bad :rofl

I am still not sure what kind of animal it is/was. That is one reason I did not pick up on the orange color, my Corgis are about that color.

I thought maybe it was a fox. Or a dog from the road..........but someone would have had to move it there.

It had a head like a dogs head. I did not pick one of the more recognizeable ones to work up. I would have had to call it "Gross/Yucky".

It is a part of life, and actually, this photo has made me appreciate Turkey Vultures more. I am not sure why.

Thanks, Ben,
et al,

Good capture Ms. G but I don't know about the color and saturation here. I haven't seen any vutures with that kind of color on their heads before.
