Chestnut Sided Warbler

[Paul Kammen]

Enjoyed watching this little guy fly around but tough to get a good perch, kind of liked him here with the pine needles.

Paul, I feel there is something not quite right here.
Is this a massive crop, have you oversharpened, also the subject is very large in the frame ????? There is a curious partial frame around the image - maybe one image fitted into another and lots of compression??

Sweet looking bird and the perch is neat with a pleasing BG
From the processing POV not my taste ... a lot of funky things are going on in terms of contrast , details ... ghostly stuff , etc .
Wondering what you doing with your images ???

Paul love the image with what I assume are a locust branch. Image is too large in the frame and some stuff is going on as mentioned especially the branch above the birds head and some other leaves not sure what happened. TFS
