I liked the look of the bright red bird in these almost black and white cottonwoods. Unfortunately, there was a black branch protruding directly above the bird's head that disturbed the composition. I've cloned it out. I'd be interested in how obviious you think the work is.
7Dii, 500mm f4 ISL + 1.4TC, Jobu Gimbal on RRS legs, f/9.0, 1/2500, iso 1250, aperture priority, center weighted average metering with no compensation. Processed in CS6 and cropped to 11.5 MP of the original 20. Taken March 10th at 9:01 am.
Your input is much appreciated.
Thanks,

2 commentsThe bird stands out nicely in the nearly b&w image. Since you pointed out the cloning, the edge of the branch a bit above and left of the bird's head might be a touch soft, but if you hadn't have said anything I would never have noticed.
Boy, that red sure does pop out of this environment Dennis. Nice techs on this one Dennis
