This shot was a quick grab hand held out car window, resting on the outside rear view mirror. It was my wife's camera hence the camera on program mode, but thanks to the wife's generosity, I got a shot of a very skittish little fellow.

Sorry Louikie; no image???
Sorry I think my 24hrs ain't up yet, how to I add image or must I redo, L
A very nice image, Louikie. I love the colors and the BG except for the diagonal limb in the upper right behind the subject which is distracting.
I like the pose Loukie but a sligt head turn towards you would have improved the image. Also the shoulder white seems a bit hot to me.
agree with stephen. the light does look harsh and the bird looks slightly oversharpened or too contrasty? do like the compo and the perch!
Beautiful little bird and I like the pose. As already mentioned a little overexposed in the white area but a very striking image with a good composition. Thanks for sharing Loukie.
Thank you for the kind comments, all the nits are taken to heart, and I will improve, thank you once again. Loukie
