Marie, the eyes of the two geese stand out nicely and you’ve positioned them well in the frame. The adult is nicely colorful. I do think that a modest reduction in brightness would be good as the adult’s head looks overly bright. In looking at the large version, it’s somewhat soft and pixelated, which has me thinking this is a large crop. That can work well on a small(er) screen. You’ve posted this at over 3000 pixels on a side, when the guidelines suggest 1600 - 2000 pixels on the longer axis.

Thank you for this feedback
The cropping was minimal. Highlights did no show in LR but I agree with toning down the adult. I will definitely look at the guidelines

This is a lovely story…parent with an eye on the child! The glowing colours exude warmth.

I appreciate your feedback!.
