Spring is here

[Art Kornienko]

50D, 300 F4L + 1.4TC, 1/1250, F5.6 400 ISO. Taken yesterday, couldn't find anything more exotic, the colours are probably off as I suffer from some severe colour blindness.

Hi Art Do like the pose and back view Sharp and well exposed Would suggest cropping form the left, you want more room in the direction the bird is looking than behind !! Will also help clean up the image !!! Not exotic but a nice one well captured !!!

Hi Art, Colours don't look too bad to me. I like the pose and eye contact.

Nice pose, I like the detail of the back view. If available, I might give him less room behind him and more in front. Colors look ok, maybe a slight bluish/gray cast.

Lovely pose with the open beak, and exposure looks good. I would definately get rid of the angled branch bottom left, which would help your comp to take off from the left.

Nice pose and details Art. I would like to see this as a vertical with less room on the left.
