    Hi John,
    Looked like my yard today and probably yours too! I really like the stance you captured on the spruce and of course the snow. Wish the tail tip wasn't obstructed. Nice control of the EXP.

    Sweet soft light and spot on EXP to start. The framing, perch details and of course the snow (falling and accumulated) all take this over the top for me. TFS

    John, killing it on the snowy evergreen branches!

    Subject looks sharp and beautifully processed. The varied oof snow flakes add a bunch.

    Perhaps if the Junco was a touch more left on the branch we'd get to see a little more, but an overall beauty.

    Looks good to me, John. Nice work, the bird, the Spruce perch, the snow on the branches and the falling snow all work wonderfully together. Thank you for sharing.

    Pretty appealing! Soft overcast light is perfect. Sharp, and great wintry mood. Glad that storm passed south of us...still pretty much green up here, but not for long.......

    Hi John, great that the Junco is perched between two sets of needles. I like the pose and HA, and overall, well exposed and sharp. What a great image for the theme.
