someone was wondering whether there was any editing done in photoshop. I'm only using Elements, and I'm not that good either. The only editing was levels and burning the background, because it was too light and didn't set them off enough.
The was a particularly loving bluebird couple. They always came and ate together, and were just sitting this way. They'd even feed each other occasionally. Unfortunately, their eggs were destroyed by a house sparrow.
Oh my !!! How wonderful. The focus and DOF is perfect. The bokeh is a beautiful blurred backdrop to these adorable little ones. This is really terrific.
That is a spectacular photo! Was there any editing done on this shot? If not,I am very impressed with your composition and how amazingly clear your birds appear side by side. :O)
