This was shot during the heavy snow fall - 1/2000 @ f/5.6 - +1.5 EV - ISO 560 - using my D300/300mm F/2.8 lens. I was expecting to capture birds in flight coming to a feeding area but when I noticed this composition I quickly adjusted my focus to capture this shot. I added a little catch light in the eye , should I leave it or erase it.

Randall I really like the composition and the light is good. I would lesson the catch light a tad or drop it IMO. I would like to see more of the image. If you could resubmit a 1024 pixel sizeing, which is allowed, we would enjoy it more and make it easier to critique. Pretty shot.

I like this shot a lot. I would lower the opacity on the catch light so it seems more authentic. Also. would clon out the center weed.:)
