 A bluebird just outside my backyard. Single shot processed from two RAW exposures to control the severe contrast of full sun. Not the score I was hoping for, but I like the shot (and hate that overprocessed HDR look). Now why couldn't I get this for Bokeh?

Nice capture but composition a bit static and colors a little noisy. Not really seeing the HDR qualities most would be looking for in this challenge.
