I was going to call it, "Nature's creation versus human contribution," but it was too dramatic for a photo like this.

I was just messing with PS.

Opinions?

I do some partial desaturation too .. it works well, as here, when it's done with subtlety. Strong graphic quality balanced by the little bird. I like it.

I like the B&W/color combination. It's amazing what can be done with PS. I wish I had PS when I was first learning photography.

Cheers,

Thanks for commenting Mike and Jim.

I use desaturation all the time versus converting to grayscale. Converting to grayscale totally screws with my details.

I would balance the colors of the bird, its a big orange, Also i would darken the blacks and do something with the sky. The bird might be in color but my eye still goes to the pole. I like these type of shots
