I am wondering if the photographer has Knocked-out the bird and digitally blurred the background. The border between the edge of the bird's feathers and the background appears suspect to me. I am not certain of this.

That would be a mighty fine job he did, if he did that. :P

I think there's something come loose in his lens as it's clearly taking double exposures :wink:

In my humble opinion, that picture is definitely shopped (click on it to get full size that I blew up and look at edges):

I think if it was oversharpened you would see it around the eye. What I see on th edge is the results of a bad selection.

To be honest, i hadnt even thought of it being PS'ed. I guess it's more then likely a possibility, quiet frankly i dont like the photo, it just does not look right heh.

I don't think that the background has been replaced. It is quite possible to get results like that with a 500mm wide open. None of the other photos in his gallery show evidence of background enhancement. I think that he deserves credit for a fine photo.

You're all dreaming :o it's definitely 'normal
The funny artifacts around the bird are from jpeg compression-and you can't see the same thing around it's eye because there is no light background for them to show against

I have no problem with shopping. I do it too. I did similar work on this picture because the background was too much in focus:

My point is that the Bokeh is not natural which was the premise of the original post. That is all.
