Another from this morning at the local country park, this time a dunnock, puffed up and looking a little cold.

    Excellent capture, well exposed, good comp and with very nicely defocused BG. clap.gif My only quibble is that you cut off a bit of the feet.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Hi Guys

    Thanks very much for your comments.

    Harry, I just noticed I lost a bit of his claw, must have gone a little over the top on my crop.
    I have re worked it again from the original raw file and this time made sure I have kept all the claws

    Regards

    Great Shot!bowdown.gif

    I like the rework where you got all of the feet in the shot.

    Take Care,

    Hey Stan, your reworked shot is very, very nice. Great detail and you have a nice bokeh working.
