Common Redpoll v2.0

[Daniel Cadieux]

Same bird that I previously posted here (http://www.birdphotographers.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7681). Same perch which is now all included to the tip, slightly different pose, and wider crop with more breathing room around. This was a quite pale individual that stood out nicely from this BG.

Canon Rebel XT + 100-400L @360mm, 1/160s., f/7.1, ISO400, 0 EC, fill-flash, handheld.

I like the framing and the perch, good job overall considering you use a little 1-4 zoom.

The white breast has a blue cast, this is common and the wing edge has lost detail.

Also you might try to blur the OOF branchs in the BG, some of them are distracting.
