    From 5 years ago; early morning in Cape May Meadows. Some more DOF might have helped, or focus on the bird rather than the plant. But I liked the light and colors. Live and learn.

    Hi Bill, certainly a lovely colour palette, and a good look back pose too. I like the hint of the droplets, and I'm glad you left a touch of space below the large central leaf.

    Your self critique is spot on. Like the dew or rain on the leaves.

    Beautiful matching background and I like the pose and leaves also. Not crazy about the branches covering the bird but not much you can do about that. I would also lasso the head only and give it a little bit more sharpening. Well done Bill
