The great tit is photographed almost from minimum foc.dist. of 5 meters. This is why the tail is a bit out of focus.
Post process: (from JPEG); some clone outs; levels; S/H to lighten the black neck and the head with the eye field, too; Unsharp mask with about 400/0.2/2 levels (I am not that shure of the exact values); a slight Unsharp mask in a diff. layer of the parallel feathers of the wing, which hardly bear the bigger total value of the UM. Finally a 10% saturation. That’s all :)
