A European Robin and a Dunnock, captured in Hartshill Country Park, Warwickshire, England.

(Shot raw and processed using DxO PhotoLab Elite, Lightroom Classic and Photoshop plus - for the Dunnock, Topaz Labs Sharpen AI. I did try putting the raw through Topaz Labs Photo AI for the Robin shot, but preferred the DxO derived version on this occasion).

Hi Peter,

Cheers - appreciated!

The metadata indicates the Robin was 1.62 metres away (I'd put some nuts and seed down on the back of the bench - by way of bribery... :D) and the Dunnock was 6.64 metres away (which seems about right from memory - it was catching some sun near the entrance to the woods as I approached and watched me fumbling to get my camera out of its bag).

(The un-cropped versions showing what I saw through the EVF are below - for information).
