I like the bird but the sky replacement really detracts and doesn't look natural. That's just me. Everyone else seems to like it.
Agreed. Sky replacement seems to be subjective. Thanks for your thoughts.

Members here have suggested sky replacement to me on various occasions but I am yet to try it. I was watching a video on YouTube about techniques and one of the suggestions was that you need to consider the direction of the light in relation to the lighting on the objects in the image you are considering adding sky. With this image, the sky lighting doesn’t seem to consistent with the light on the subject, so it makes image seem out of sinc, so to speak. Just my take, but what do I know. Love the image of the osprey!👍

Excellent photo, I don't remember seeing any Ospreys when I lived in NE Ohio and camped at Pymatuning State Park, back in the 1970's.
