    I really like it, besides getting a 10 on the 'cute factor' I like the vintage photo feel to the it. What can you tell us about the setup / location of the shot?

    Cute indeed!!, love the eye contact from the threesome. If you have done any sharpening, I would have eased it back a touch as there are some visible jaggies running along the top of the middle Finch's bill. Other than that very minor nit, it's a super shot, Merv.

    These guys are such little cutie pies. Nice to see all of their tootsies and their beaks and eyes. Nice feather details. Very pleasing final product.

    This shot has oodles of potential.
    I just love the image design and the cuteness factor.
    I also like the color tone the image has.
    I think you need to fix the cloning marks on the perch and repair the blown out feathers on the bellies. I don't think you can recover any detail in the blown whites , so I would clone in some feathers over the areas.
