An edited version of a photo I previously posted. This version has the distracting limbs and leaves removed from around the eagle’s body. An improvement???

Looks good... but can only see a very small version of the image. The "download" version is the same size as the preview version in your post.

Edit: I looked up your previous post of this image and see what you've done. Now that I have that to compare, I think you may have removed a little too much of the background. Not sure what program you're using to edit the image, but often I just add some blur to distracting backgrounds and/or selectively burn them in a bit darker. That can often make the subject "pop" a bit better.

I'm not averse to editing out some distracting background details. I do try to keep it subtle, though.

For example, here's an image I just worked over for a customer:

Edited... cars, telephone pole, wires removed from background.
