    I love to try to capture Cedar Waxwings doing their thing in the late summer and early fall. I caught these guys in a Chokecherry Tree which added some color.

    It's a nice scene. Really like the colors. The top of the perch looks more in focus than the bird.

    Good head angle and setting. You might wish to lose some or all of the stuff on the upper left frame-edge. There seems to be a distinct loss of fine feather detail on the bird's back ...

    Thanks a stack for your membership support.

    with love, artie

    I agree with Artie. Another point: I realize the foliage is pink-purplish, but there is a magenta cast to the image, most apparent on the waxwing(s). I love the vertical comp and the dark berries!
