This wistful Yellowish Flycatcher had a plain bright green background of out of focus jungle. I wanted to show the location, so I added an image of the jungle taken a few days before to the background and used my blur and outline technique in Photoshop.

Wonderful spot. I have been here 2 years and we see a lot of birds. Very hard for me to get good shots of them. Nice work!
