Now, the 'wrong' handling of colours, framing, focus, you name it. To make a long story short, there is no wrong. There's only one's taste. Of course, one is entitled to dislike things as much as they want, including how other people handle the colour of their images. However, it may make sense to step back and understand why people do what they do. Often, they do things "incorrectly", not due to a lack of knowledge or plain stupidity. They may follow their guts or have a vision others don't have, and that's what makes our community so rich and diverse. I like the original image better. It's exactly how it looked in the woods—green-tinted. That may add a feeling of wrongness, of not nailing it, of missing the task from a conventional photography perspective. But nature gave this bird the colour and patterns of its plumage for a reason. It camouflages perfectly into the patterns and colours of the environment. If you were white-balancing this, everything would look right but utterly wrong content-wise. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillCB Posted August 10, 2024 Share #283 Posted August 10, 2024 I apologize if I gave offence to the OP or anyone else. None was intended and of course I have in no way modified the original photo - just a screen shot. Personally, I have learned a lot from others on various photo websites where I have received constructive criticism. I welcome it for any of my own images.

Ken Abrahams Posted September 11, 2024 Share #296 Posted September 11, 2024 To Bee or Not to Bee said the Wasp - SL3 + VE 90-280 at 280, hand held. I was surprised to hit these bees from ten feet away, using the tracking albeit clumsily. I will get serious with a tripod or monopod next time. I love the abstract-background-bokeh shapes in flora/semi macro work. Welcome, dear visitor!
