WOW Linda, that made a great difference. Thank you so very much for your advice and time.


As R.G. and amehta mentioned, getting it right in-camera is something to always strive for.

But I was happy to show you a couple of quick tips re processing. As I mentioned, I've had so much support and help on UHH, it's great to pass some of it on when possible! Glad you enjoyed the edits :)

What suggestions can you provide to make the Doves stand out more.

It is difficult when the background or other surroundings are "busy." Moving to a position that helps eliminate distractions from the main subject can be done sometimes (usually not!). Opening to a widest f/stop that will still leave the main subject sharp is also sometimes possible -- photo #1 has good separation because of that. Sometimes flash fill can help -- might need a booster device like Better Beamer for distance reach. Probably a lot of good suggestions better than mine at other web pages.

Excellent! We have lots of doves around here, but I've never seen the little ones.
