Another Along the Same Lines

Took this photo a Redstart today. Like most warbler photos in Ontario, the birds are always in trees never out in the open. I cut and copied the warbler and limb...and took a stock backgound that I have of blurred green grass and pasted warbler in..this took lots of work afterward removing and adding background and forground colors, to make the image appear real .

The PS work looks very real Paul !!! It is strange to say he looks too clean? Amazing !!!! Would lighten the bird a little more. Main light seems to have been coming from the hard right Might give you some trouble with noise making it lighter !!!!

I like the slight right placement and good head angle !!!
