Too bad you had to rush this one. Taken the time, you would have probably seen a more pleasing composition, shapes and background. The foreground doesn't do it justice. Maybe zooming close to the two birds, cutting out some of the branches...
When you hand-hold, it does suffer from a handshake. Then when you try to fix it in postprocessing, it actually hurts the image, because sharpening increases the contrast and blows out highlights, etc. (I know it is hard to drag your tripod everywhere - I don't do it either). The worst thing is being rushed by our kids or spouses that are not particularly interested in photography and don't understand that we need to take our time, right?
If you get a chance, go back there and redo your photos. You've already learned some from this experience, so going back usually is fun and produces better results.
Also, you would greatly benefit by becoming a member so you can do more in post-processing in challenges that allow it. It actually taught me a lot more about my style of shooting and I realized in post-processing there is only so much you can fix, so it makes you a better shooter :-)) |
