I like the pose with the fully extended wings and being vertical, a little soft.

Coming in a bit soft but a beauty of a bird.

A really nice pose you captured, Hendrix!
The overall softness is unfortunate though ...

Thanks.

I app more USM on heard. the wing can't do too much sharpen as it will cost some noise.

Nice capture of the moment!

I suggest you try "selective sharpening" technique which may help to avoid adding noice to background. My HK$.02.

Hi Griffin.

I alread use "selective sharpening", I mean the dark wing will cost some noise if do too much sharpening.
