White-capped redstart

Hello and welcome. Can I offer soem advice? We generally pick only our best pictures to upload. If there are too many, it makes it difficult for other others to find a good image. Also, for a bird photo, it is good practice to crop and process the images before uploading them if they are to be useful. Unfortunately, your 14 images of the white-capped redstart are over-exposed and unprocessed. Best wishes, Charles (talk) 11:56, 2 December 2019 (UTC)

@Charlesjsharp:

Dear Charles, thank you so much for your valued advice. I’m an amateur photographer. I don’t have much idea about post-processing of bird photographs. I do use some free tools like Fotor, but yes, now I realize that all my photographs are over-exposed and need to be fixed. It would be a great help if you could please guide me about the post-processing. I will try and get these over-exposed photos removed (if it is possible). I am also a new on Wikimedia and still trying to figure out the best way to share my pictures and contribute however little I can. Thanks again. Sending lots of love from this himalayan village in India.
