Love the diagonal perch here exposure looks good. Wish the birds head was facing the other way.

Great pose and composition with that diagonal perch. The bird looks soft to me though - not sure what is going on there. How does the RAW look? Colour and tone look beautifully rendered. Worth another go at this one, I think, if that detail can be recovered.

Nice one Jake, very much like our coal tit - which coincidentally I have been trying to capture. Exposure and colours spot on.
Feathers on the second image look sharp are the ones around the eye and bill equally so?
When you said file was too big at 1200px by 800px did you mean it was greater than 400k? When you have your resized image in Save for Web do you go top right and click the drop down to make an image 390-395k this will maximise image size, i.e. file size.

Yes, I meant that the file kept coming out larger than 400k. I wasn't aware that you could set a limit on the file size, but it sounds like I should be doing that![/QUOTE]
Good glad to be of help, also ensure Convert to SRGB is ticked.

Jake, the sharpness on the RAW looks excellent so there's something in your workflow that is producing softer final result. What are you doing for your output sharpening as I'd look there first. Getting that right makes a big difference.

That looks a lot better Jake even on my really crappy laptop here at work .

Yes, that's fixed it. Great work and really made this into a delightful image.
