Thanks for the repost Artie, I did consider such a scenario myself but I felt the original felt "original" I am not always in favour of making things looks more perfect just for the sake of it.

Hi Jon, cute little finch and quite a mouthful!
The pose and the overall quality of the perch are pretty nice. Thorns and blooms are very interesting.
Downsides for me are the oof parts of the perch and the shadows, as well as the blue sky. Could it also use maybe a bump of exposure?

Brian, Steve, I think you are right I produced many different versions and I think on reflection the brighter ones were better. The darker version tempted me because I like the rich greens but it was a bright day from what I recall. I have a skylark - maybe that will be a little better. The red magenta you mentioned Steve, I didn't notice it but now you mention it and I look back I do see it ..... same old story I think I am overthinking the processing.

Jon, PP is all about simplicity, I think it’s just that last minute adjustment that takes it off direction. Perhaps the ‘overnight’ test is worth considering???
Post Production: It’s ALL about what you do with the tools and not, which brand of tool you use.

Hi Jon ... love it , with the nesting material and sitting in open space is great .
Nice job done in capture . Would exclude the nesting material from sharpening
OP is too dark for me ... I would prefer roughly Steve's version , but would skip the cleanup .
