Fine work Tom. The background colors really compliment this underphotographed sparrow, and the lighting is just right. Wish that he was giving you a bit more direct eye contact, but the angle is not terrible.

This is very good, Tom. Love the detail and contrast on the plumage. I don;t mind him looking at something else, his concentration makes up for the eye contact. Nice perch and background!

Hi Tom,

I love the feeling and pose on this one. However, I noticed that the head is not as sharp as the body.

I really like the dark BG!!!

Nice and clean. I'd like to see a brighter BG and a more interesting perch
