Hi to all,
Migrant Hawker , photographed at Chambers Farm Wood a couple of weeks ago , it's a real shame that the perch is blown as I think this could have made a really nice image , any thoughts on the comp would be appreciated.

Hi Andy
Don't mind the blown bits on teh perch too much - though they always niggle. I might be tempted to clone a wee bit more bg into the top, as the whole image just seems a fraction too high un the frame to my eye. Lovely shot of a df that I have yet to se - so well jealous.
Cheers
Malcolm

Whithout blown highlights this would have been stunning,still very good imho,love the background.I got some shots of one of these the other day,but it insisted on perching in a blackberry bush,just could'nt get a good shot.
Looks fine, and is a very nice image of this male... if you shot RAW the slightly blown perch can be corrected..... but it is really minor... I like it

I really like this image. I don't find the blown perch too distracting.
Perfect background.
