Gannu, I used Color balance option in Gimp to reduce Blues. Then I reduced the brightness a bit.

Dear Amar, I have adjusted the highlights using curves in Photoshop. This will reduce the burn-outs in the image.

Tried to correct color balance by reducing blue heavily in shadow, slightly in mid tones and slightly in highlight using Adobe Photoshot.

Cropping, Brightness, Contrast

Wing Lee,

I cropped your picture a bit (to remove the leaves that are distracting attention), reduced the brightness 10% and increased contrast 15%.

Hope you like this.

Brightness, Contrast, Sharpening

Dear Amar,

I did minor exposure adjustments to your beautiful butterfly picture that appeared over exposed. I used Gimp to reduce the brightness by 60 points and increase contrast by 30 points. This cut down the overexposed parts while enhancing color saturation on the butterfly. I also ran Unsharp Mask to sharpen by 0.40 value around a radius of 3.

Contrast, Sharpening

Amar,

I have adjusted the contrast a bit and applied moderate sharpening to make the butterfly look prominent. You lost some contrast probably due to light falling on the lens.

I cropped the picture to move the point of interest, the bee to top right intersection. I then sharpened the picture a bit, reduced the image brightness a bit and increased the contrast a bit.

Explanation

Hi Everyone,

I posted this workshop to show how close we could get to he bird. I could not get a wider view in this picture with my fixed focal 180mm hat I had on my camera at that moment. You can see the 100-300 Sigma lens and a part of Satish's head at the left bottom corner. The beautiful Indian Roller is striking a pose on a perch at the top right corner.
