    I like everything about this image. The fresh snowflakes on the forehead, bill and left leg are great details. Details of the robin all look excellent to me. Perfect head angle and the bird well framed in the image. The perch with buds and seed pods all fill up the frame, leaving just enough blank space to set off the image. Did I say I really like this? That window view you have is really special.

    I liked this image very much the first time I saw it, John. Still holds up beautifully and that sharp snowflake on the beak is a bonus. Like the detail and falling snow.

    Lovely shot John the snow flakes on the bill add that je ne sais quoi. Bet you didn't get many more shots without having to clean the window of snow/water!

    John:

    Very nice for the reasons John R. mentioned. The slow shutter speed mixed with the snow to give the diagonal snow streaks, warm orange vs. some of the cooler tones.

    I might be tempted to trim back the one twig that intersects with the back of his neck.

    Lovely.

    Cheers
