You mean vertical full frame. Very nice BG and singing pose with a great perch.Pretty good EXP control and sharpness. Terrific perch, congrats!

Hi Neil, Agree with Fabs on the backround,perch and pose. If this were mine I would have wanted a bit more room on the bottom and left. A little less on top...pleasing image...

Hi Neil - exposure looks Good and sharp as a tack - Like the perch and the singing pose. For my own personal tastes would have liked a little bit of a head turn away from you to get more of a profile - nothing wrong with what you have - just my own personal taste.
Keep em coming and dont forget to leave comments on other peoples images!!

Hi Neil Sweet bird and pose !!! Agree with Dave on the little extra room, your work was rewarded on this on e!!! ... remember to leave a couple of comments after posting your image !!!

[Myer Bornstein]

Excellent picture. I agree with the crop adjustments

[Neil Nourse]

Thanks for the comments :)

I agree on the crop but this is FF so it's the best I could do with this one. Next time I will either back up a bit or pull the 1.4 so I have some frame to work with in PP. It was a quick setup as I was running late and loosing light. If the weather holds out I may get another try over the weekend!
