Kinda Cheeky

[PhilCook]

Eastern Yellow Robin from a trip interstate a while back...this was one of a family that hung around my campsite for a while with quite curious natures as this image shows .

Canon 7D + 500 f4......f4, 1/1250, ISO 640, no flash fired..........dull overcast conditions in a forest clearing, added a bit of twig on the left to remove it's jagged end and removed a single vertical twig on the upper right, selective sharpen and 4 runs of full strength noise reduction to backdrop.

Funny pose and the sharp face is perfect.
I think vertical crop would look nice, or at least some off the right side.

[Nick Palmieri]

Funny and different pose. Nice job on the exposure and BG. Think a vertical would work nicely as well.

[Robert Holguin]

Terrific shot!!!
Love the pose. Put a smile on my face.
Excellent details, great perch and background.
Well done.

What a nice pose & curious bird! Excellent perch & BG. I'm not sure whether you could putting the bird more toward the right of the frame would be better or not?

Great inquisitive pose on this little guy/gal. Exposure, colors and details look wonderful. Like it!

[PhilCook]

Taa for looking....it was only a very small crop with his tail so erect, in the long run I chose this comp....I found this one awkward to decide how to crop.

Sweet little bird and the inquisitive pose made me smile!
I see a purple/magenta cast but perhaps this is the birds' color?
Really like the BG,
Gail

Beautiful shot, Phil. Sometimes the birds just don't seem to fit any predetermined aspect ratio, huh? Love the pose and the muted BG. Great shot overall!

Very cute pose and a lovely bg to match. Well done on the pp'n, it looks very clean.
