    Gosh how sweet is this lil guy, so nicely done Will, the colors just pop against the snow and the buckthorn really frames this beauty. Well done!

    Hi Will .... oh i am gonna love the Bullfinch .

    Image looks very good , albeit the not ideal shooting angle .
    Exposure , color , tone and details are very nice . Good work

    I can see some potential for more details in the snow and I would really like to see the rosy breast a bit deeper , just because it does look nicer to me .

    TFS Andreas

    Hi Wil, lovely colors on this bird, I don't recall seeing one before. Sharp detail on the bird, the snow and out of focus Buckthorn provide a nice background. Thank you for sharing.

    This beauty just pops off that snow and I love the framing with flora. TFS
