Wow, I was not aware that so many people on dpc have a serious allergy to selective saturation. Well, it is good to know :-)))
Nice catch about the halo-ing around the wings issue. I must admit, I was lazy about the selection. The color on the background was cyan-blue dominated, I did not bother doing any selection. Well the halo is because of that ;-)
As for the blown highlights, I agree. Again because of laziness... I edited this version for printing and did not bother to edit it again for screen.
Well, thanks for the comments, I appreciate them...

Excellent job on the focus here. Not sure if the water desturation works best on this. Perhaps a slightly toned down blue/green would have added to it. |

nicely captured, though i'm not a real fan of the treatment you chose--it just doesn't work for me. |

Nice focus, exposure and composition. However, I can see some halo-ing around the edges of the wings where you must have done the selections for the selective desat on the background. Was the desaturation really necessary? I think it might have been just as good an image without the extra processing. |

Not keen on the desaturated sea but the Gannet looks superb. |

Stiking shot and interesting choice with the desat. I get what you wanted to do but I'm not sure about the B&W. Other than that, this shot is really good! Good luck. |

I hate selective desat, but this is beautiful. Why deny it? 7 |

Great capture. Not sure about the selective desat. The bird is a little over exposed, and the feather detail is lost in the whites. |
