Backyard setup, the shadows were creeping in at the top of photo. I really like this effect. I have hundreds of male Finch photos. The females are plain jane's compared to the males, but I liked this one.

A better head turn would have made this perfect! The perch is awesome, and some flash might have helped with the shadows in the crevices.

I do too. I like BG's that have some character and variation in colour. Everything in this image is good. Very well done. :-)
