Ok...You can photograph me...But, I am shy

This is one from my set up in the local woodland...I thought this Blue tit gave me a 'different' pose....Also been trying out different perches and BG's....Tripod..ACR, Topaz DN, PS2021

Absolutely beautiful Will. Definitely a "shy" pose. Sharp throughout and lots of feather detail. Is the background natural? (or backdrop of some sort)...if so, looks great! Well done!

Very nice. Clean sharp image. My only nit would be the shadow of the branch on the bird

[Paul Burdett]

Will...just had another look and noticed some light green artifacts around the tail area, and a few other places. Did you do something around the base of the perch...where the greenish area is?

[Jonathan Ashton]

Super shot Will, slight reservation over the area around the tail and the stem. I like as is but would be curious to see a version with slightly less sharpening.

First rate setup image . Really good.

Hi William,

very good detail and technic.

congratulations

[William Dickson]

Thanks guys....Yes Paul your right I did do some cloning in that area ...I cloned out some grasses at the bottom of the perch.
