This is a Sarus Crane. I had planned to put in a shot of a flamingo with a perfect S-curved neck, but this shot had richer colors and a better background.

PP consisted of levels, saturation, Noise Ninja, and USM. Thought this was a great example of a "natural" S-curve.

I wish the s-curve was a stronger element in the composition.

Nice and sharp. The white is a little blown on the head and throat. I like the DOF.
