Female Black Redstart

[Ivan Sjögren]

Canon 70D | 400mm L USM f/5.6 | ISO 400 | 1/600s | f/5.6

Taken just next to the Colosseum in Rome last winter. All comments welsome, thanks in advance!

Very nice image Ivan. I like the sharpness and feather detail. I also like the POV. The colours on the BG compliment the bird nicely. But, for me, I think the perch is too big. I would have liked to see this bird with more of the BG colours in the image rather than the perch shown. Good work. Well done and thanks for sharing

nice colors and BG, good details. I agree the perch is not ideal here

Ya, the perch may not be ideal but the BG and details sure are. Well done

[Jim Crosswell]

I like the pose, details, HA and BG colour. I would take some off the bottom to reduce the size of the perch about halfway to the bottom of the feet. Nice image Ivan.

Beautiful colours and details, I think Jim has a good idea. Whilst the stone may not be idyllic it does help show off the delicate legs and feet very nicely.

Excellent image, Ivan. I like the way it is.

Very nice image with the colors and detail. I'd sharpen the bird a lot less. Nice work, Ivan.
