    Amazing detail on this little guy! I don't think it's possible to make a sharper shot, so well done on that front. However, I think the whole image looks flat/muted give that it was taken in what the catchlight in the eye suggests is full/bright sunlight. I think you need to life the exposure and brightness. The bird's side look gray and they should be gleaming white in bright sun.

    I agree about the "flat" look. Did you darken the whites? Everything else looks good.

    Hi Volkan, a super image with some cracking detail, it just needs opening up more in Exposure.

    When my laptop is back up, send me the raw file for this one. All of the versions above look like bad pprocessing.

    ps; The original post looks as if it was shot using a fog filter. And many of the whites are greyed out ...
