House Sparrow.

This image was created in the last week. Cropped for composition and sharpened.

ISO: 200, 1/800, F: 5.6.Evaluating metering. Exposure Bias: +0.3. 550D, 400mm.

Thanks for viewing and appreciation. C & C are highly appreciated.
Kind Regards.

I like the exposure the pose, the composition and the colours, I have a slight reservation on the head, I am not sure if it is quite in focus, I don't think it is movement as the SS is quite fast.

Hi Satish, good lookback pose, and the colours look spot on. A vertical was the only way to go. I like how is holding onto the fork on the perch. I feel the focus is on the end of the wing, as the head seems a bit soft.

Great comp, BG and love the look back pose. Agree that the head looks just a little soft. Overall though a very nice image!

I like the comp and colours, as well as the BG, but yes indeed the face is a tad sift and in need of more sharpening for web (focus is on the perch as Stu mentions).

Beautiful portrait, great pose and colors.

Satish,

I like the look-back pose as well. Nice sized perch and clean bg.

Looks like you got the back in focus and just missed out on the head. Not sure if sharpening will bring it all back, but it's worth a shot!

Love the over-the-shoulder look.... great job on helping a common bird look special and intriquing.

Move shot Satish! Like the way the bird is perched on the branch a well a the HA and smooth BG. I do agree that the focus looks to be on the back of the bird. Thanks for sharing!

The pose is good, the HA is nice too,
I guess a higher F value may have helped in this
