Comment – the tail is too fuzzy, out of focus. Bammesk (talk) 03:58, 19 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Background seems over-processed. Has it been blurred? Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:17, 19 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- No. I'm not sure what you're on about. JJ Harrison (talk) 09:58, 23 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You take great photos. You are probably using techniques in the field I've not learnt yet, but there seems to be a (strange-to-me) transition in the background from in-focus to completely blurred. I'm not trying to be difficult (so don't feel obliged to oppose my image in revenge). I just want to understand the photography techniques or post-processing techniques you have used.

Oppose I love the competition, but between the tail being fuzzy and the rest of the depth of field being so ridiculously shallow, I have to oppose this per FPC 1,3, and possibly 8 (per the comment above mine). Cat-five t c ---- 06:22, 23 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support I don't particularly like the blurred foreground - cropping it higher would remove a lot of ugly mush from the bottom sixth or so of the image - but the bird itself is quite good. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 6.6% of all FPs} 01:04, 26 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
