Hi Renzo, I like the pose here a lot with the raised foot and open bill. I think the composition would benefit from a little more room on the right and bottom if you have it. a little highlight adjustment might bring more detail out of the whites on the back. welcome to NPN--I'll look forward to seeing more of your work. be sure to comment on others' photos too, as you'll learn as much or more from that.

Nice, close up image of this stork. Appears to have some good detail going on. Agree with Brian about the crop and whites. Also, it may be a little over saturated in general, or perhaps just backing off the yellow channel a tad will keep the grasses from being a little bright.
