Bird nest burning (Cut shot)

We decided not to use this shot which we were going to use at the end when I sing 'pretty bird' because once again it is too dark even after trying to brighten the contrast on Final Cut Pro, and the lighter we was using to light up the nest is also in the shot, so we just don't feel it's one of our stronger shots. Despite being able to crop out the lighter in Final Cut Pro by zooming into the image which tended to just bring down the quality of the shot.
