    This was taken at my setup near the house. The perch is a little large for the Chickadee but I liked how the colors came together. Hope you enjoy the image.

    Hi Jim, nice soft light and complimentary colors.
    You just made it with the DOF. I don't mind the perch as it has interesting texture.

    Hi Jim, I do like the angled pose here, and against a clean BG. Yes to the complimentary colours. Overall, well exposed.

    You nailed the eye focus, but I wish for a bit more DOF across the bird, particularly on the shoulder and those cute little feet. I think the perch is pretty cool as well. He's a bit tight in the frame, so I might give him a bit more room all around.

    Who doesn't love a chickadee. Such friendly little birds. Classic pose and perch.
