I am guilty of not checking out the background in the view finder before taking this photograph :confused:. This is the best Green-headed Tanager I photographed while in Brazil. And the BG is full of huge bright spots and odd angles of light. I spent over an hour trying to fade, blur, etc. this BG into something acceptable and could not do it. Any suggestions or is this just an example of what happens when you don't follow an important rule?
Canon 7D, Canon 400 f4 DO IS, ISO 640, 1/400, f4.5
C & C very welcome.
