This picture was taken this morning. It wasn't bright enough due to high shutter speed but a little brightening in photoshop made it bearable. I'd just like some comments on how you think the picture is and how it can be improved in photoshop please

Thanks.

The white balance is way off, the photo is too 'cold' (blue). You can easily adjust it in photosop, in edit -> imade enhancements -> colour balance

If you don't mind putting out the source file that would be useful.

You may want to rotate the picture a bit, although the off-balance framing may help convey the birds flight.

How's this one then?

Or does somebody want to have a go and tell me what it should be like lol

?

EDIT: Is the source file just the original? Ill upload it now
EDIT 2: Original file below

Both are as equally good as each other, i personally really like the first and think the colour helps it. But if you want to be pedantic, and see a proper colour balanced photo, it should look something like this.

I actually really like the first one that was posted. You could do with taking down the reds a bit, but apart from that nice

I still prefer the first to the second but I guess it's just a case of playing with photoshop and seeing what you like. Thanks guys.
