They've been back for a few weeks now already...I always love to hear their cheerful song during early spring!
Canon 7D + 500mm f4 II, manual exposure, evaluative metering, 1/400s., f/5, ISO 800, natural light, handheld, FF, darkened pupil, a few distracting specular highlights in the BG foliage removed (it was a bit dewy that morning).
Beautiful image Daniel, wonderful exposure and I love the oof pines in the BG. Strange look to the tail feathers, is that needle sticking up through the tail feathers?
Beautiful image Daniel! Love so much about it as well from the light,perch,pose,ha and bg! Don't think there is anything I would change. Really enjoy these birds myself.
Very beautiful image, the bird appears to be sitting on a throne
the details are lovely and the greens all over make the bird stand out
HA is perfect, love it
Hi Dan, fantastic IQ, and just love the light. The little fellow certainly gave you a great pose, and I do like the perch and BG. Good DOF and sharpness on both the perch and sparrow.
