As for the selective desatration I didn't have to the bird was already b&W which I feel realy make this bird even more interesting. Thanks for the comments. |
Cropping the first one to a portrait orientation would most definitely improve it. the second one is an interesting pose, but suffers from lighting issues. I think you'd do well to try these shots again by a window, or get an off camera light source (or two) to help with the shadows.
Think about what you find beautiful in the bird, and how you can emphasize that (single) detail. Better yet, make a list of features you think are notable, and do a "study" of the bird where you take numerous shots designed to highlight each individual detail... You may be surprised at how interesting the results can be when you play with lighting and really focus on a detail.
