Wren with bedding

I spotted this little guy in my parents garden the other day. They move so quickly, this is the best I could do this time! He (or she?) is nesting under a planter right at the back door, so maybe more opportunities soon.

Great image of quite a difficult subject.

An opportunistic shot, well caught. A crop to take out the frame and a slight "Shadows and Highlights" tweak to show more detail would improve the pic.

Re: Wren with bedding

Thanks guys for your comments.

Andy, it's already pretty heavily cropped, so may get noisy!! But I'll take on board your suggestions and give it a go. Thanks again,

Garry

Re: Wren with bedding

Very good capture of a really tricky subject!

I think the 2nd has suffered a little, and I actually prefer the first, as it shows the environment better!

Well done, Mike.

Re: Wren with bedding

Yes, there's something to say for both pix. Given that it's already heavily cropped, a light S&H may be all that's required.

Re: Wren with bedding

I did do some work on the shadows and highlights, but it doesn't look as strong on the post.

Thanks again Andy for your comments

Nice shot, difficult to capture - they move so quickly.
