korking my way back

Another Chickadee (so meager compared to what's routinely posted here).

And a winter Goldfinch. This shot is pretty much right out of the camera with just some minor USM and cropping.

Anyone that cares to offer any PP suggestions is appreciated.

Also, somehow I'm still losing EXIF data even when just saving as jpeg w/o using "save for web" feature in PS.

Oh, and the title was supposed to be "working my way back"... not "korking"

Doesn't look like you have to work your way back too far, Dave
Very nice captures!
Hope to see you post more progress pics!

Well done. Check to make sure that you have not selected remove EXIF in the conversion dialog. I think there may be a spot in preferences too.

Thanks Barry and John.

I'll make sure the dialog box is set properly.

I would say youre back.
Nice job, the subjects are pretty whether they are common or not.

Nicely done Barry, nice detail!

Thank you both. I enjoy looking at all the great images posted here and learning from them.
