Weather conditions have been overcast & cloudy over past few weeks. Managed to make an image on one such a day when skies opened up a little bit...

Already such a green bg?? :o
Nice Eurasian Blue Tit shot. I would a bit sharpen more. Don't you use fill flash?

You should clean the senzor:)

Nice shot, I am not an expert but I would suggest go back to the RAW image. Open and set to the default image, i.e as you took the shot. Go to levels and use the White dropper on the pure white feathers, then adjust levels contrast etc
Hope this helps
