Comment | Yellow-throated Miner (Manorina flavigula ssp. wayensis) of inland Western Australia. At first I had discarded this capture, as I saw no catch light in the bird’s eye. But on closer scrutiny I realised that there were only a few really interfering grevillea leaves near the face and body of the bird in an otherwise very busy capture. The eye was easily enhanced/lightened up, showing good details, and I only had to remove a few of the most annoying grevillea needles and blur the background a bit here and there. In the end I feel this image is a quite plausible one, showing the bird in its environment. | ||||||||||||||||||
