Considering that this is basic editing, you did an especially good job on this photo... heck, if it were advanced editing you did a good job!

I would like to be able to process my flower shots as well as this one (and shoot one as well also)... quite beautiful and worthy of a top 10 finish in my personal opinion.

Peregrine Falcons - 3 days old
by MacDonald

Comment:
I am very blessed in that I know a master falconer who raises peregrines... these little guys have been born to a peregrine in captivity.... she is not tame mind you... and these babies will be let go into the wild once they can fend for themselves... but this shot was an easy one... the Master Falconer who let me into her space was a person she considers her mate... if you were to approach this family in the wild, or in captivity, without the protection of a falconer, you would be torn to shreds... I just wanted for people to see the beauty of these tiny raptors in a way most will never get to see.. Maggie
