Capturing time was perfect. Thanks, Tim.

Hi Tim, lovely image of a Robin. The background and out of focus vegetation add to the image. My only wish (no I would be begging it) to step to the top of the log so the feet would have been visible. Thank you for sharing.

Joe, you are 100% correct, that thought escaped me when I posted.

Lovely frame, Tim. The colours on the bird and background look great to me. I especially like the sheen on the wings you've captured here. Missing feet don't worry me and composition look good - but minor nit-pick: I am distracted by that stem passing right in front of the bill.

Lovely shot Tim wonderful colours and details. To see him in the midst of the flowers is a real treat.
If he was in my back yard he would be a red breasted blackbird!

I like it but find the OOF flower to the immediate right of the bird very distracting.
I would clone that one out in a New York minute!
Good POV and techs,
Gail

Very nice Tim. Love the colours on the bird. Nice pose. Another vote for removing the the flower in front of the bird. The BG colours show the bird real well.

Everyone Thanks for your input, I removed the offending flower, yes it is much better.
