Info European greenfinch, Chloris chloris, female. There was the top of a male visible at the bottom of the original, in the OOF background. I removed him by combining with another exposure of the same branch, taken a few seconds later after he'd flown off. All by -- Baresi F (talk) 21:37, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

- Support Try in the future less contrast, background too dark and foreground too iluminated --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 11:43, 11 May 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks Wilfredo. I don't usually get much sun to work with here in the northern UK, so I tend to get over-excited when it finally makes an appearance :) The female is quite a low contrast subject - in fact it normally looks fairly dull - and I think direct sunlight works to "lift" it here; however, I'll investigate tweaking the contrast in the original and see how it looks. Cheers --Baresi F (talk) 20:12, 11 May 2014 (UTC)
- @Baresi franco: "not much sun to work with" I don't quite get what you mean. Sunlight not strong enough? Or days are not long enough? :) --Graphium 01:49, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
- Dull, grey skies are the norm here, @Graphium: - think L. S. Lowry paintings. Days are never long enough, of course - that goes without saying ;) --Baresi F (talk) 11:37, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
