Red-billed Blue Magpie

Description

The background was taken on a clear day of nothing but the sky, the bird was in a tree with a lot of background distractions in side of a chicken wire fence. I used the haze remover to clean up the haze created by the chicken wire using Adobe Elements 14. I used Photomerge in Adobe Elements 14, removing the background, saving the limb and bird, then did an overlay on the blue sky.
