Hi, i put a photo in the workshop to test a concept about enhancing the image og the bird. Bluring the background almot completly maybe we can have a better photo at the end. It was done in a hurry, so the techniqeu maybe used more carefully.. but its just an idea.. what do you think?

It was done with The gimp ;-)

It is a very good shot of this bird Juan.
Like the overall color and the composition., even so it can use a bit of sharpening and to warm up the colors a bit.
Great shot anyway.
Excellent POV and BG.
Welcome to TN.(Paisano), good luck in this site. We have great people in it.
Regards
and Congrats.
JC.
