Tripod head, Canon 5D IV Canon 500mm f4 l IS II
Auto ISO 800 -2/3, 1/1000 sec f8

Taken from my back garden hide. I liked the way the bird's pose seemed to reflect the gentle S curve of the dead flower stema and head.(The purple haze top right is OOF buddleia).
All comments welcome.
Sharp and well designed and the soft tones and colors go well together. The only thing that bugs me is the lack of separation from the bill and the back ...
with love, artie

Beautiful perch and composition! This is a very strong image. I do agree that a more raised head would have really helped. Eye contact is good as it is though.
Hi Jon, good comp, and I like how the perch meanders through the frame. The central placement works well, and good to see the hint of yellow on the Goldfinch.
