Enjoy playing with the pictures…
I adjusted the colors and the curves on the Anhinga bird…
And an amazing picture came to life…

You made my heart sing. It’s an endearingly sweet capture. Both the first and second are my choices, and I’m leaning toward the second. Happy Photo Challenge.

I like the bird… I have watched it catch a fish and then get it stuck in its beak. It’s just an interesting bird to look at…

I had to look twice the first time I saw one in Florida.

I like the perspective from the back of the bird in your composition. I have to say I like the muted tones in the background in the original shot best but the bird really pops in the 2nd version. I use curves a lot. Love it. I nominated you for the 3 Day Quotes challenge. You can simply find a quote and post it with an image or go deeper, your choice. I hope you take the challenge.

I like the second shot. Fishing birds are some of my favorites and this one’s a beauty.
