Wish it were mine Dan. I love those dark backgrounds. Nice light on the Heron. It all looks good. TFS

Thanks Dankearl .

The bird and the perch are beyond superb. I'd lose the bit of grass by your signature. Not sure what others are seeing but I am seeing some horrific...

Dave: Welcome to BPN. A well done birdscape is always appreciated here. As mentioned, the warm bird colors vs. the frosty environment works...

Great pose and perch, maybe some more NR on the BG...

Pretty frame with nice color and pose. There is blue on the bird to reduce...

Nice, I like the foliage in the LHC for balance.

Nice low angle, I think the BG is a bit busy, I might try to blend it a bit better.

I like that the head patch matches the perch.... nice details and cool bg, I would take out the second catchlight.

Sooo much detail popping off that dark BG. Just stunning... TFS

Hi Gents, Thanks as always for the help. I reduced blue, magenta and purple sat in DPP and warmed a little in camera raw due to feedback from...

Thanks folks, just looking at trying to create something a little different with the available lighting conditions.

Very much like the minimal approach here Joe, exceptionally clean and great backdrop. Perhaps more negative space to the LHS and s liver below,...

Hi David, lovely looking frame, love the fiery warm and saturated colours, juxtapose to the subject, he/she really stands out nicely, especially with...

What a fine and proud Robin he is Will, be nice if was calling with such a pose like that. Colours look great, just watch your sharpening, just a...

Hi Dave, small in frame has worked very well here indeed and I like the choice of crop and position in frame. The Stonechat colours work perfectly in...

Thanks David :)

I like the pose and colourful palette, this is a good example of a blackbird not actually black, I can see shades of brown through to almost tan. ...

What a handsome little chap he is! Great set up Will and a fine result.

I'm not normally a big fan of direct stare shots, but there was something about this one that made me smile! Maybe its the oversized eyes, but I like...
