Would I have kept that image? Of course I would have! Should you have? Well, that depends on what’s in your files already, doesn’t it? I’ve just been going through old hummingbird shoots and deleting many images I kept before I’d got so many better ones. But I think the optimized image makes the above moot; I think anyone should have kept it. Now, some heresy. Given the richness of files from cameras like yours, and the power of post-processing programs, one full stop of under-exposure (or over-exposure) really isn’t fatal. Of course one should get it right in the photograph, but you’ve proved my point above. As for the clutter, the only thing I’d have been really bothered by is the little stick the bird seems about to sit on… Thanks, as always, for your wonderful examples and making us think.
