That was yesterday. Today it's sunny. I suppose I'll get better photos here.Your focus is just a tiny little bit off here (like millimeters). Its sharpest at the bridge of the beak and lower comb. The eye should be the sharpest focal point. You can go with a little deeper depth of field to get the whole face in. A change ion aperture or focal length is probably all you need.
It's a little flat again, not a lot you can do with that because of the lighting. You can play with your b/w points and the highlight/shadow points to try and push a little texture into it but for a snapshot, that's a lot of work.
I might also square crop this and declutter the empty space on both sides.
A lot of the same suggestions as above. Your light today is killing you. And um. You have the least interesting end of the bird in this shot...
Shoulda posted that pigeon photo on Friday.
Can I submit non-bird photos?
