This image of a male House Finch was captured from a portable blind in my back yard. Please tell me what you think about it.

It works for me. The pose is nice, the bird's head is in a clear area. The just emerging leaves on the perch are a nice compliment to the flowers. A nice habitat shot.
Lovely pose and great details.

I haven't seen an image out of a D100 in a long time, and appreciate seeing this. I still have my D100, my first serious digital camera.
Very nice pose, exposure, colors.
There is a fair amount of noise in the background.
I might do just a little more selective sharpening on the bird.
Cheers

Thanks Randy.
This image does go back in time a bit; since then there has been a D200, D300 and now D7000. So you're probably right about some noise.
BTW, my first serious digital camera was a D1, which preceded the D100 and has been my only "pro" camera. That had a low 2.74MP resolution but took excellent photos nevertheless. And I still have that camera.
Back in my D100 days I didn't know much about noise. But now I have no excuse! :t3 I should have looked for it and corrected it before posting. Tsk, tsk!

Thanks everyone! It's been great hearing from you! :bg3:
