editing out visual distractions and zeroing in on specifics when we look at the world around us. Your camera on the other hand is much more objective. Case in point - the top image above - the flowers poking through the wrought iron garden ornament looked pretty good to my eye and I took a picture. You can see the birds beak has been lost against a dark area of the background - something my eye hadn't picked up on. Changing my perspective slightly placed the main elements of the wire bird over a contrasting, lighter area per the second photo. Voila, the bird regained his beak. It only goes to show, you can't always trust your eyes. There may be times when your camera, in its objectivity, will see things just a bit differently.
