But it still does not seem to have the original color of the bird. ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) Can I send you the original photo and can you play with it so I can see the difference of good pp?

Cheers, ![](http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3133/2317950773_c5da7c55d4_o.jpg) here's my take at it.... but i prefer cropping it like so... ![](http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2068/2317951433_6612b3c085_o.jpg) this closely follows more of the rule-of-thirds yet at the same time crops the dry leaves on the left of the frame. providing "white space" on the right makes the viewer's eyes wander throughout the image. i can't take out what i see as "purple fringing" noticable on the branches. hope you like it telyds. ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

Thank you guys. Now I see what pp can do to improve the photo. That will be my next goal. I could not pay attention to Master Romy at Ixi's when he lectured on pp because my bird shots were too "nyeh", nakakahiya. My shots are still "hula-hula", not the Mallari type kind, malayong-malayo. I still have many things to learn. Neon, I promise to give your paro-parozzi prize when we see each other so you can sit and teach me with the settings. Manny, cropping is another thing that I want to learn how to do right.
Very encouraged with time you shared, telyds

TeLyds, in my book, the capture is only a small part of digital nature photography, which is a long complex process: 1. Good field craft + right gear = close view of the subject 2. Close view + good light + well-groomed/rightly posed subject = good capture 3. Good capture + good PP work + good media (monitor or print) = great photo. Romy

Chanced upon this Moorhen on one of my unplanned sorties to a friend's place: EOS 40D; Canon 400mm F5.6L; f/5.6 - 1/640 Sec. AV; ISO 1600; Handheld: ![](http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2132/2445745614_0412254ffd_b.jpg)

All of the above + Plain Tina as rare bird magnet = fantastic photo
