    Nice photo, PP.
    May I suggest though, if possible cropping so as to remove the negative space at the bottom right hand corner, other than my suggestion a excellent shot.

    Wow Craig, immediately I can see the improvement. Thanks a lot, I'll have to spend a bit more time in studying crops. Very well done Craig and no, I don't mind anyone processing my pics to help me improve my skills.

    Hi Craig,

    If you do not mind my asking, how did you manage to get that image into your Photoshop Software? Many thanks, Tony :)

    How would a square crop of this image look like porkphoto?

    No problem Tony, move your curser over the picture, right click the mouse button.
    This will bring up a window with copy image and a heap of other things.
    Click on copy image and then in my case I went out of Canonforum and brought up my desktop, I then pasted it there so I could find it easily.
    Now bring up your photoshop and in file click on open and this will allow you to find the file on the desktop.
    open it up and then edit.
    It will be a JPEG file that you work on, any problem let me know.

    Gary, just putting my two cents worth in, I think a square crop would work well on this photo.

    out of the three images the i personally like the square one, to me it give an all around feeling of the amount of space/freedom of the bird and moon, maybe because it has neutral spacing around the subjects

    I prefer the square crop to be honest. But ultimately, it is your call porkphoto to the image that you prefer the most.

    Its difficult for me to say which I like the most since I'm the one that took the pic. After seeing Craig's version I liked that. Then after I cropped it square like you suggested I liked that too, now I'm all confused! Thanks guys. Lol.
