In later afternoon, this area of the tree gets a bit of light and the BG often has lovely muted colors. When this female cardinal landed on the crabapple branch, the stems of the crabapples complimented her lovely colors. Cleaned up her beak, increased exposure, .33, 90% full frame.

I love the colours throughout....Looks clean enough for me Ann at that ISO...Good detail on the bird with a lovely pose...I'm torn between removing the upright branch on the LHS and recrop, or leaving it in.....Maybe worth a look if the IQ holds.

Well done!

I like the overall color palette and Head Angle.

Almost FF!? Super Ann!

The stems are so quirky but it really works here. In part, IMO because of the way the branch weaves itself through the frame.

Subject looks great for ISO 4000 and love the complimentary bkg colors. A real beauty!

Amazing arrangement of twigs and leaves and there is a bird in the middle of it...
Excellent.

Love, love, love this canvas... What a perch... TFS

What beautiful artwork, Ann. Love the light and your choice of composition. How great she landed in the crabapple tree.

As a side note .... for a better and correct color displaying on the screens around the globe , you should save the file with an embedded color profile ( sRGB ) . As far as I can recall .... none of your postings are having a profile embedded .

Hi Andreas, thank you for your comments... I could use your help finding out where my problem lies bc after your last suggestion of embedding the color sRGB i checked all the places and they were already checked, maybe you could suggest what i should do next? Thanking you in advance

Thank you very much I found the problem and have changed it, will post next image properly...

That is some perch. I might prefer it without the leaves, but its still an amazing setting. Back view of the lady is lovely, and her position in the wide frame is more than perfect. I'd love to see a bit more detail/DOF across the tail, but the composition and image design really carry the image for me. It's very memorable!
