Canon EOS 7D Mark II EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM +1.4x III @420mm
f/14, 1/250, ISO 400
Imported into LR, initial processing in Adobe Raw, further processing in CC PS 2017, 81% of full frame.

I have surgery on my right wrist tomorrow, or rather today, can't sleep tonight, so processed this image from last month.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Excellent, Barbara.  The composition with the three fledglings is just great.

Good luck today!

Hi Barbara
Nice singing group, with good detail and color.

Well done.  I think the only thing I would add would be to darken the perch especially the areas of lichen on the sticks which are a little blown out in this image.  Otherwise superb composition and the birds are all in good focus.

They are so cute Barbara. Nice catch, nice DOF to get all three in focus. What a group. Are they going on tour soon?
