Hi Jeff,
Very nice habitat image. I don't mind the leaf in the BG but the two sticks on the left are a distraction, especially because the bird is looking in that direction. Keep trying!
I like it a lot Jeff !!!! Not easy getting these little guys with a clean bg as you have here !!! Sharp and well exposed Can't ask for much more !!! As presented might take a little of the bottom. Very nice image !!!!
Thanks Al. It does not make much sense to expect to have a tree-top dwelling bird in an image 100% devoid of branches. LOLOriginally Posted by Alfred Forns
Sweet image, Jeff. I actually like the sticks, as he is so intently focused on them, I would expect that he is seeing worms. I hope to someday see a cerulean, if I ever got an image as nice as this one, I might stop right there.
Jim, Great habitat capture! Glad your are out there do your usual fine work. Bob
To me its not the sticks, but the fact the warbler is looking into them putting the bill quite close to them. If his head was turned the other way it would be better, but alas we don't always choose the birds' poses :-) As is I still would have taken this image with a great big smile in a heartbeat!
Great find and an opportunity well handled. I was happy to see a Cerulean around here but couldn't get nearly as close. I like the exposure and details in this one. I might reduce the color noise a bit.
Wonderful image and welll composed Jeff. Really like the pose and excellent exposure. What a thrill it must have been to see this little beauty. Congratulations .
Jeff,
you are finding the great bird's, now you just need to take the next step and set up a nice perch with a cleaner bg using the area's habitat. Good detail but would prefer the side view pose.
