Quick Tip: Better Bird Portraits with a Clean Background
Follow & share WildeNatur:
A distracting background can ruin an otherwise great bird portrait. Many photographers focus solely on the bird and overlook branches or other visual clutter.
Pay close attention to the background before you press the shutter. Choose a simple, uncluttered setting or use a wide aperture (e.g., f/4 – f/5.6) to create a soft bokeh effect. This helps the bird stand out beautifully.
