    Although a large perch for the bird, it works with the snow as it almost appears snow covered.
    Bird looks great and I like the loo down.

    moss and frost makes up for the perch being a bit too thick for the bird. nice light, exposure and the snow adds more... my only wish that the head wasn't slightness rotated upward, but I like all else

    Very nice overall, but Arash touched upon my only gripe: that is of the head tiltled away from us - it makes it appear like a steeper angle than it actually is.

    Nice, cold feel to the image. Good light, IQ and the oof flakes makes for a little more added depth. I agree about the headangle and the size of the perch even though the perch is very good-looking.

    I like this one a lot. The head position does not bother me; it looks as if the bird is being curious.
