Tufted Titmouse

[Jim Crosswell]

This was taken at a local Nature Center last month. A feeding area is nearby. I had one nice image of the Titmouse that I posted before but there was a seed in the beak. I wish the pose was a little more relaxed. These guys are quick. All C&Cs are welcome and appreciated.

Nice job on this one. Good pose, great perch with bonus snow. I was shooting these guys the other day and yes they are quick. TFS

Jim:

Nicely captured titmouse, well exposed, sharp, like the dusting of snow along the well proportioned perch.

Cheers

Beautiful composition! Nice details and head angle.

Very nice capture Jim. Exposure and details are perfect. I like the pose and the fact that the body is parallel to the sensor so everything is in focus. I tried getting a shot of these nervous little guys in NY. but didnt get a keeper. Well done

Jim,

Perfect sized perch for this guy - fits him like a glove. Very nice HA and I'm glad that the tail doesn't intersect the perch. Not much else you can ask for!

I may consider enhancing the catchlight just a bit.

Another beauty set-up image. The snow on the gnarly perch adds alot. Keep it up!

Sweet shot Jim - lovely muted tones, excellent perch and super pose,
Cheers, Greg

Beautiful image Jim. The snow on the perch is a key detail in the success of the shot.
I like the spring loaded pose of the titmouse. Really cool background!!

Nice setup and excellent pose captured very nicely, Jim. Love the creamy smooth background.
