Eclipse photo rework

I've been nibbling away at photos to show at my party next week. I just did a rework of one of my eclipse photos, including changing the color balance to bring some color into the corona. Does the color temp change work? Any other suggestions for improvements?

PESO Now I know why

They are known as “Ruby Throated Hummingbirds.” It was a dark and gloomy day, but I saw a hummer at the Oriole feeder earlier, so I set up outside anyway. My hummers are very shy so I can’t get close, but planted my tripod about 25 feet away with the 150-450 and 1.4X converter. These are very

GESO: PHALABORWA ORCHID SHOW

A few random shots I took at the show this morning. The Club is a shadow of what it was & included Bonsai & Art to fill the space. It seems that the younger generation are no longer interested in these things. 6 images, scroll R for the others.

Re: PESO 2018 - 095? - GDG

I agree it's all subjective. I liked this balance, but I can see a tighter framing. With the amount of pixel resolution available, that's possible too without too much image degradation. :-) I do wish I'd brought a slightly longer focal length along as well, however, for these kinds of shots.
