Description

Another shot of a Sora seen locally here at a nearby park. He/she seems to be feeding on some kind of red invertebrate.

Specific Feedback

Any.
I used the new Remove tool in Photoshop to remove some vegetation. See any glitches? I think the Remove tool worked quite well.

Technical Details

Canon 90D, Sigma 150-600 contemporary
ISO 640, f8, 1/2500s, hand held

Processed in DXO Pure Raw 3 and Photoshop.

Allan, I’m not familiar with the Sora, but you sure captured him well doing what I guess he does, feeding on something in the water. I’m guessing the red I see in his beak is the red invertebrate that you mentioned. Perfect timing. Amazing details in the bird and a nice reflection. I don’t see any glitches at all. Nicely done!

Excellent image of the sora, Allen. I don’t see any evidence of the use of the remove tool. I tried it once, but had the settings wrong(when PS updated, it removed all the old settings I had on my repair tools).
