Hy guys.
Havent been in for a while, due to commitments.

This Blue Tit was photographed in low light, under a dense caopy of trees.

Re: Blue Tit

Lovely quality photo Gary, such a lot of detail on the feathers. A bit of a green caste on my monitor - probably just that - my monitor!

Re: Blue Tit

I have not found one to sit long enough for a photograph.

Nice looking bird.

Re: Blue Tit

Love this, could be better but still love it, the angle, the background, the pose and the detail, just needs some work ont computer to make it pop!

Re: Blue Tit

Stunning little picture, I agree however with Ash it requires a little TLC.
I had a play (not posted the result) darkened the background and lightened the Bird, also just brightened the catch-light in the eye, just lifts the image to the next level.

Fantastic.

Patrick

Re: Blue Tit

Pretty much agree with all the comments here - I do see a slight green cast; find some areas that should be white and use the grey dropper tool (or equivalent) - let us know if you need further info on this

Delightful shot!

Ian

Re: Blue Tit

Low light conditions hasn't prevented you capturing lots of detail

Re: Blue Tit

Thanks for your comments!
Re the green. I hadn't noticed it. But You are right!
I have played around with it, and can see the difference!
