Hi

Here's a whiter version of my bird pic. I'm curious to know which version people
prefer.

Mick

I prefer the white verision, because ( to me ) it looks more realistic. When
I think about it, the blueish tone wasn't too realistic if you regard the
dark clouds which *should* prevent the sky's blue color from reflecting on
the surface through radiosity...however you turn it, it's a really
impressive picture.

    This, whiter, version - the snow and ice in the previous version were a
little too blue - this version is about spot on.

I have an old version of your picture.. I think it was from April this year.
I like the simpler look of it; the more white landscape which contains more
snow, and the more winther-like sky.

I know you didn't like to hear that... You've done some impressive work with
icy ropes but the picture doesn't contain as much depth, contrast, and
clarity as the old version - in my humble opinion.. Some textures have
improved though.


Best regards,
Hugo

I like everything about this scene except the eyes.  I don't have a
reference handy but I keep thinking they should be darker with larger
pupils.  Of course I could be wrong, but I suggest you dig up a couple of
photos to make sure I'm wrong.

This is very nice...just a couple things:

The barbed wire looks like it is supposed to be rusty, but looks too 
orange and even. I'd suggest a dark gray with areas that are closer to 
the color of those tail feathers. It also looks too thick and the barbs 
too long, but that could be the kind of wire.

The feathers don't seem very "fluffy" to me. It looks kind of like a 
painted carving. Maybe if you could make a couple stray feathers poke 
out...

I think the eyes should be more orange.

Absolutely fantastic!

No criticism this, but why not try a version with a bit of focul blur to
bring out the bitd/post/wire/icicles a bit.

Top notch stuff, Mick!

There are some small features that could make the head of the bird more
realistic:

1. the eye looks now a bit like a fish eye, laying on the surface of the
head.
2. the "eyebrow" should be directly above the eye, without a gap.
3. the beak of the bird has a nostril. the lower part of the beak ends below
the eye.


For the little image editing, this photo was used:

This are small details, I think the bird pic looks great as it is now.
