Hi Cleis.its not an important image but I'm new to editing and i was wanting some advice as id played around a bit but i don't really know what I'm doing too much yet :)already your advice was helpful though so thank you.
I find it amazing on here seeing some of the images and just wondering how its all done .i have so much to learn.
 
Hi And,I welcome your advise which I will follow up,just to confirm,it all happened in secs as I wasn't sure if he'd fly off which he did so I didn't have time to even see what priority settings I was in.but even so I wouldn't have known about what you suggested so thanks for that.i had time to press the shutter about 4 times and this one maybe came out a bit better,what do you think?
 
And said:
Crows have a very iridescent plumage that normally shows a lot of subtle blues, purples and greens which is lost here.

You've shot with water underneath which is basically the same as putting a mirror underneath so you have to trick the camera into exposing properly as there's (at least) a stop of extra light being beamed back up. I would suggest reading up on how to understand metering and how to get the right exposure from that metering.

And,can you recommend a book on this or maybe a website explaining in detail about metering in these type of situations,so should i have exposed a stop higher say?(i.e. wider aperture for more light?)
thanks for your patience :)
