The technique your using 3DGuy is called contrast masking.... and it does work... I've seen this technique in various photo magazines.

I thought we had a tutorial on this somewhere in the resource center area? Just checked and I guess I'm remembering wrong, because I don't see it. Maybe we just discussed it in the forum?

Bet they'd love it if you made a tutorial on it..... :~) The only other thing I would add to this, is that in order to avoid having to fix it in the first place would be to use a bit of fill flash for proper exposure of the subject, or spot meter the bird and set the exposure manually based on the meter reading of the bird, not the background...
