- Generally speaking by having the background distant from the subject. Here background for these is very dry grass on a gentle slope behind the branch. The photos are taken from a hide in an area experiencing drought near a water source, namely a bird bath at some accommodation which I found out about and booked in the area. I sat in a hide for most of the few days there but the camera didn't move very much, hence the similarity of the backgrounds. Unfortunately much of the bush around the property has since been burned in the Gospers Mountain bushfire so I'm afraid that this approach in this location won't exactly be a repeatable activity.

Oppose – inappropriate (excessive) digital manipulation. FP criteria 8 says limited, well-done corrections. Here, the background is transformed, not corrected.It looks artificial or fake. Bammesk ( talk) 01:28, 22 November 2019 (UTC)- Thanks for your input
Bammesk. Simply unfounded and not the case.
RAW here.

- I struck that portion of my comments. The backgrounds still look odd or artificial, as if they were manipulated in post process (rather than real life). The images have EV, so I understand the support votes, but I still lean to oppose based on the aesthetics of the images. Bammesk ( talk) 16:34, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

- Support. It's a shame that the positioning is a little different, but I'd support either individually, so I'm happy to support as a pair. Josh Milburn ( talk) 18:22, 29 November 2019 (UTC)
