    Default Chestnut-sided Warbler

    One of my favorite warbler shots from this spring. He was very cooperative and I got some nice images in different settings. I still really like this one even though he might not be looking directly at me.

    20D, 400 f5.6, 550 EX.

    This image has a lot of great elements Josh. Almost everything in the image is in the same plane and therefore in focus. The leaves and the caterpillar add a lot of interest. Some might suggest removing the leaf at top right. The head angle is a wee bit flat and would be a bit better angled toward you a little- at least that's what my instinct says.

    Nice BG, but the lighting is a little flat. I would brighten it a bit. Nice action with the food. I also wish for a bit of a head turn. I think the leaf at the top....there should be more of it, or clone it out.

    Josh I have nothing on this beautiful warbler. Nice image and the caterpillar is a bonus. John and Jody have given you some good suggestions on this image.

    Great setting, details and BG. The caterpillar adds to it. I would clone out the single leaf and crop a bit off the top.

    Very lovely composition and a great clean, compimentary BG. The little grub is a very nice bonus. I agree about cloning out the leaf on the top and thanks for sharing Josh.

    Hi Josh, this is a sweet image of this beautiful species. If the top leaf were bigger I'd leave it, but as is it would look better cloned out. I really like the green BG here.
