I have been messing with raw for the past two weeks, thanks to Justin who converted me! I am starting to get some images that I am happy with. This was taken this morning near Guildford, Surrey. Thanks for any c&c

Well caught, raw's definitely the way to go. I think a some adjustment in composition is required here and perhaps some more contrast, nice though, the one I saw today got the better of me.

Well captured Whitethroat image. I quite like the comp as the bird does appear to be looking up.
I have yet to convert to raw.

A good effort Liam, like the unusual comp too.

Thanks, I didn't really have a choice with the crop as there was some reeds in the way. Shame about the post but there is always next time!

There is a good section in the Times today about Whitethroats, in the middle (nature notes).
